This summer College Summit Northern California will have four workshops where
high school seniors will begin their college application process. Each workshop
lasts for 4 days (Th-Sun) and will be held on the campuses of UC Berkeley and
University of Pacific (Stockton) on different weekends in June and July.

We are looking for volunteer Writing Coaches who will be trained to facilitate
the personal statement writing sessions with a group of 4-6 students. And we
need College Coaches, folks with professional experience as guidance or
admissions counselors to meet individually with students and help them plan
their senior year and potential college list.

You don’t need to be a great writer or have teaching experience to be a great
Writing Coach. We will train you on-site on how to facilitate the process with
your students.    You just need a passion for working with Bay area youth to plan
for their future and a willingness to learn the process. You are supported the
entire weekend by seasoned staff.

The Berkeley workshops are quickly filling up, but we need more folks at
University of Pacific. If you are worried about the distance or lack of
transportation, please note that I do my best to help volunteers coordinate car
pools. Amtrak also goes to Stockton and the campus is a short cab ride away.
