Public is welcome.
Topics are focused on Cherokee Nation citizens, but most information
applies to all students and especially minority students.
Learn more about
science, technology, engineering and mathematics
(STEM) careers throughout the presentation for increased employment
opportunities and to earn more money over your lifetime.
The event is free
and open to the public. Students and their families as young as 5th
grade are encouraged to attend as your Senior year is often too late
to make key decisions on college prep curriculum in High School, testing
strategies for the ACT and SAT tests, recommendation letter network
and resume building. If you are in college or an adult hoping to return
to college or even attend graduate school, much of the presentation
will still apply to your preparation for finding and applying for scholarships.
