Leaders in Transition (LIT)
A four-year professional development program that advises each Scholar as they successfully prepare for their career during college.
Mentorship & College Coaching
We match each Scholar with a trained community volunteer who provides guidance on how to succeed through the various aspects of college life (academic, social, emotional). Our volunteers are also trained and ready to advocate on behalf of the student, if necessary.
Internship Matching Program
We are committed to connecting our college students with impactful internships across diverse industries. These placements, made possible by tailored career coaching and strategic internship partnerships, have transformed the experiences of many of our scholars, positioning them for long-term success in their chosen fields.
College Transition Support
The transition from high school to college is one of the biggest changes our students and an important time to learn tools to navigate a new environment. We support this transition for our Scholars providing study and time management skills, professional communication workshops taught by Mission Scholars alumni, Professor Workshop Series, and First-gen College Student Panels.
“Mission Scholars provides invaluable service to high-achieving students who deserve to be helped, but can’t necessarily afford the support they need. This program completely improves the trajectory of our lives by making our dreams of college a reality. It is the most helpful organization I’ve ever been exposed to, and it targets the biggest turning point in our lives. Thank you for your role in making that happen for all of us.”
