Good morning!



I hope everyone is having a great start to the week. Below is an invitation to an information session we are conducting for community college advisors and faculty. The invitation went out at the end of last week, but if you have a contact at one of the schools you feel could benefit from this 30 minute Q and A, please feel free to forward it. Also, if you are a new advisor with Seattle University, we encourage you to join us.



Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you in advance for your support of the Alfie Scholars program.

There’s nothing that quite compares to the feeling of helping a student reach their education goals.

But as you know, between that student and their goals lie a labyrinth of challenges, barriers, and financial obstacles. From navigating peer groups and class schedules to finding a community of like-minded strivers, each student’s journey is unique.

That’s exactly why we created the Alfie Scholars Program at Seattle University—to help remarkable students from historically underrepresented communities find their place in post-secondary education and thrive.

We want to invite you to a virtual coffee chat to learn how you can help the remarkable students on your campus make their dream of a bachelor’s degree come to life. You’ll hear from three Alfie Scholars how the program made a difference in their lives and how you can help your students attend Seattle University.

Here are the details:

You know the type of student we are looking for: they are full of hope and grit, passion and perseverance. Many are first-generation students or are from a group that isn’t typically represented on a college campus. But they’re the students you remember—the hard workers with big hearts who set off to college to make a difference for their families and communities.

By the way, did we mention that the Alfie Scholars Program is perfect for the student who wants to be a changemaker and find solutions to complex social issues? The program also awards a $15,000 scholarship per year for 2 years.

This is exactly the kind of life-changing opportunity your students deserve.

We are excited to see you at the advisor session on November 4!<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.alfiescholars.org%2Fadvisor-nov-2021%2F&data=04%7C01%7C%7Cfdbd7409c0de4a7eaf7c08d998be59b7%7C02d8ff38d7114e31a9156cb5cff788df%7C0%7C0%7C637708765590307039%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=MMb8gDhm19LgCCITXMoxYHmrs3n%2BkETEYj%2FAH2M9fu4%3D&reserved=0>
