I have been a part of different campus organizations throughout my undergraduate years and even now, in my second year of medical school, and from my experiences thus far, there is no program that comes close to the academic and professional development programs offered by College Success Scholars (CSS). Not only did CSS help me develop high expectations, it provided the help I needed to meet those expectations. Through the counseling and workshops, I felt empowered to achieve my goals. Sometimes it was difficult to see the vision the leadership of CSS was trying to impart, but looking back now, I can see it. I am proud to be a CSS alumni.
