ACCESS College Commitment Day 2018

Over 2,000 high school seniors from Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Suffolk and Northampton County gathered in the Ted Constant Convocation Center on April 24 to celebrate their acceptance into the colleges of their choice.

This high-energy event, emceed by Shaggy from Z104, was attended by students from Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Suffolk and Northampton County public schools. All of these seniors were helped by Access on their journey to college, and were accepted into AT LEAST one college or university beginning in the Fall!

We even surprised the students and gave away scholarships and gift cards to be used for dorm shopping during our event!

We couldn’t do this without our sponsors. Special thanks goes to J & A Racing, Norfolk State University, Old Dominion University, Radford University, Signature Family Wealth Advisors, University of Virginia, Virginia529, Virginia State University, Virginia Tech, Virginia Wesleyan University and ECPI. We truly appreciate your support!
