I worked with the bakers for chef shadow day and it was great! I met a lot of high school girls that were really interested in coming to Sullivan and I talked to some of them one on one about how to make an easy transition and get adjusted here as quickly as possible. Most of it came down to using your resources. There are scholarships available from lots of companies and high schools out there that Sullivan accepts. Get involved in your school's A+ Program and take as many AP classes as you can to get some credits out of the way. Talk to some current students to see if you can buy their used books or check out some used books on Amazon once you find our your books' ISBN numbers. Become an Ambassador or Room Advisor at the dorms to get scholarships throughout college. There are so many resources out there to make college more affordable and easier! After talking through this some of the girls were a lot more confident in coming here. Plus, they got to watch and help Chef Straw make some scones and biscuits and then join the Culinary side to partake in some Asian cuisine. If you haven't gotten to shadow a chef yet that is definitely something you should sign up for.
