Project Description:

The School of Business Fellowship Program is designed to support promising incoming students, who are first in their family to complete a four-year college degree. The program serves a cohort of five first year business students with funding for Hampton University’s Summer Pre-college Program, Fall/Spring scholarship funding, basic dorm supplies, and book/required course supplies and materials. The fellowship program requires participants to engage in special workshops and a service learning project where the students serve as mentors in the Hampton Roads community to work with rising high school seniors. The Fellowship Program was created in the summer of 2018 by Dr. Ziette Hayes and sponsored by Mr. Zachary Scott
