CofC Students Selected for Exclusive Grad School Prep Program

The Dr. Shawn Long Organizational Science Institute out of UNC Charlotte is a graduate school preparatory program designed to prepare Black, Latinx, and Native American undergraduates for graduate school in the organizational sciences. Jerome Stewart, assistant professor of management, serves as the program’s director.

Every year ten students are selected from a nationwide applicant pool to participate in a weeklong program that includes intensive mentorship, research training, GRE preparation, graduate school application preparation, and ultimately, long-term sponsorship.

This year, three College of Charleston students were selected for this exclusive opportunity:

• Brea Fields (Business administration; Schottland Scholar)
• Destiny Humphrey (Marketing/Arts Management; SB Student Ambassador)
• Elana White (Psychology)

Congratulations to these students for this accomplishment!
