\nLisbeth is a senior at Woodrow Wilson High School, and has been in the FLOC Scholars program since the beginning of her junior year.
\nThis fall she will be a freshman at George Mason University, her top choice, where she plans to major in Government and International Politics.<\/p>\n
Each FLOC senior is matched with a postsecondary coach who guides them through the college application process. Lisbeth and her coach Jazmin are certainly a great match! \u201cI think FLOC did a great job pairing us,\u201d Lisbeth said smiling. \u201cJazmin and I have similar interests and backgrounds; she\u2019s also Latina and came to FLOC as a student, she studied International Affairs at Tufts, and we laugh at the same things.\u201d Lisbeth also said that she has appreciated how Jazmin encouraged her to stay on top of her college and scholarship applications this year.<\/p>\n
Lisbeth has many wonderful FLOC memories. The SAT prep that FLOC provided during her 11th grade year helped to increase her scores in all three sections\u2014math, reading, and writing. \u201cI learned new vocabulary, of course, but I also learned how to think through test answers when I came across words or phrases I was unfamiliar with,\u201d she said. During her junior year of high school, Lisbeth went on a spring break college tour with FLOC. \u201cWe visited UNC Greensboro, Radford, and VCU, which were three of the schools I applied to,\u201d she recollected. The college tour not only proved helpful in the college decision process itself, but also provided Lisbeth with an opportunity to make lasting friendships with other FLOC students.<\/p>\n
