Center for Access and Success

Friends, family and supporters gathered with members of Elon Academy's Kappa Class to cheer them on as they prepare to attend colleges and universities around the state this fall. 

Among those volunteering with the Village project this semester — members of Elon's men's and women's basketball teams. 

Elon Academy Kappa Scholar Jenny Te Vazquez has made history by becoming the first of the program's students to be awarded the prestigious Morehead-Cain Scholarship at UNC-Chapel Hill.

The March 24 article in The Times-News of Burlington told the story of Sarah Rawls, a member of Elon Academy's first cohort who will begin pursuing her doctorate at Temple University this year. 

Students experienced professional development advice and networking opportunities with alumni

The NC Emerge 1G Summit was hosted and led by Elon's Examining Disparities in Educational Access Living Learning Community and drew attendees from students around the state.

Inspired by Elon's commitment to scholarship funding, retired faculty member Nancy Midgette, of Montreat, North Carolina, decided to support students in the Odyssey Program with her gift.

The Sam and Vicky Hunt Scholarship will assist two students each year in the Odyssey Program, a highly selective program for students with exceptional ability and promise and significant financial need.

Furman Moseley '56 created the Odyssey Program scholarships for women with outstanding promise in 2007 to honor his wife, Susan. The university awards four Susan Scholarships each year. 

The new scholarship gifts and commitments announced by President Leo M. Lambert and a group of key university volunteers on Friday come from seven inspired donors.
