We work with various campus and community organizations and individuals to develop programs and events tailored specifically to our Illinois Promise community. Here are a few examples:
- Annual Business Etiquette Dinner;
- Illinois Promise-exclusive job fair with the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics (DIA);
- Resume and cover letter review workshops with The Career Center;
- A no-cost iClicker loan program coordinated in partnership with Illinois Student Government and the Office of Minority Student Affairs (OMSA);
- “Pay-It-Later”, a program offered by the Illini Union Bookstore that allows Illinois Promise Scholars the chance to charge up to $600 per fall and spring semester and repay the balance later in the term;
- “Promising Pathways”, once-per-semester meetings that bring Illinois Promise alums together in themed panels to discuss various professional and educational paths with continuing Scholars;
- And many more!
