We are excited to announce the launch of the High School Mentorship Initiative by SAPS (Shoqata Akademike dhe Profesionale Shqiptare). This program is specifically designed for Albanian High School students who aspire to pursue higher education and need guidance through the college application process.

Through this initiative, we aim to:

  • Personalized Mentorship: Match each High School student with an Albanian college student or professional who has experience and a strong understanding of the application process in the United States. Our mentors come from diverse academic backgrounds and are eager to share their insights and experiences.

  • Comprehensive Guidance: Assist students with every aspect of the college application process, including essay writing, scholarship searches, and preparing for standardized tests.

  • Community Building: Create a supportive network of peers and mentors that fosters growth, learning, and a strong sense of cultural identity.
