UCSD is partnering with the California Student Opportunity
and Access Program to present 10th- and 11th-grade students and parents in
southeast San Diego with “An Evening with UCSD,” an event that will provide
information about college admissions, financial aid and top-paying jobs for
graduates.
During the event, which will be held April 22 from
at the Elementary Institute of Science, Chancellor Marye Anne Fox will welcome
the students and their parents after an introduction by City Councilman Tony
Young.
“This is an exciting opportunity for [UCSD] to meet with
students and parents in their own communities, share information about the
university and the details in navigating the college preparatory process,” Fox
said in a statement.
Additional speakers include Vice Chancellor of Student
Affairs Penny Rue, Assistant Vice Chancellor of Admission and Enrollment
Services Mae W. Brown, Interim Director of Financial Aid Ann Klein and
Associate Director of Career Services Craig Schmidt.
