| Program Description: |
| | The College Bound program funded by the NJ Commission on Higher Education targets 40 high school students from |
| | the districts of Burlington City and Pemberton Township. The grant supports precollege educational and enrichment |
| | activities to ensure that students complete high school and successfully pursue post-secondary careers in math, |
| | science, or technology. Funds for the grant are designated to provide on-campus programs during the summer and |
| | after-school activities during the academic year. During the summer, students enroll in a 3-credit course, plus |
| | additional supplemental courses including college study skills. The course work varies from year to year providing |
| | new and exciting learning opportunities for students. Students also receive a $350 scholarship upon completion of |
| | the summer program. During the academic year, students are provided academic advisement, tutoring, career |
| | exploration, and financial aid information. College mentors and tutors serve as role models throughout the program. |
