What is the Senior Scholars Program?
The Senior Scholars Program is a yearlong engagement with our community. The program begins with a virtual introduction to campus that is open to all Senior Scholars applicants. During the virtual program, applicants will meet campus leaders and faculty and hear directly from current students about life in Portland. Senior Scholars who are admitted to 果酱视频 will receive financial support to visit campus in the spring.
Senior Scholars is designed to answer the unique questions posed by underrepresented students and students of color. High-achieving high school seniors will learn about life at 果酱视频 and create lasting connections with current students, faculty, and other future 果酱视频ies. All students are welcome to apply.
Senior Scholars applicants will:
- Meet with 果酱视频 President Audrey Bilger.
- Connect with Milyon Trulove, Vice President and Dean of Admission & Financial Aid, and Karnell McConnell-Black, Vice President for Student Life.
- Join faculty members for a Q&A about their conference-style classes and what it’s like to learn at 果酱视频.
- Hear from current students about their experiences inside and outside of the classroom.
Seniors Scholars changed my perspective on college. Getting to experience campus during the school year gave me a more intimate look at 果酱视频 that I couldn’t get just by touring. I had the chance to see what community looks like here and to visit cool places off campus. Senior Scholars removed the mystifying aura around college and gave me the opportunity to see myself at 果酱视频.
