Jada's Story

My passion is psychology. Although I don't know everything there is to know about psychology, I am extremely interested in it. I dream of being a psychologist in the future, and I believe that if I dedicate my life to it, I can be the best that I can possibly be. Going into the field of psychology means committing to helping people in need, and impacting and changing their perspectives in life.

Attending UConn Pre-College Summer Program will allow me to get a head start in developing the skills I need to be the best psychiatrist I can possibly be.

A Note from Mr. Laskowski, Jada's Teacher

Jada is a passionate young lady with a sharp mind. We have had conversations regarding her desire to attend college in the future and study psychology. She is concerned with the well being of others and shows a genuine heart for helping. I know that she is not from a wealthy family but she continues to be an outstanding member of our school community and has participated in our cheer squad. In her short time here she has made a big impression.

amazing experience

The program was indescribable. I am beyond thankful for being able to attend such an amazing and well thought out program, The classes were incredible and I learned so much on the major I would like to study and so much on the person I wanna be with the workshops they offered me. I couldn’t be more thankful and happy to have gone... it was by far one of the best experiences. So thank you so much for everyone who helped me go to Uconn Pre College Summer Program, and thank you for all of the support as well.

The friends I made during my program, from a few different classes.
