We are beyond proud to announce that Carlos Velasco has been awarded a full-ride scholarship to Princeton University through the QuestBridge program. This prestigious achievement recognizes not only Carlos’s academic brilliance but also his incredible perseverance and drive.
The path to the Ivy League is rarely easy, and for Carlos, it involved overcoming obstacles that would have unmotivated many. Throughout his time in the foster care system, Carlos remained committed to his education and his dreams, proving that your current circumstances do not define your ultimate destination.
Carlos’s acceptance into Princeton isn't just a personal win. It’s a powerful reminder to every youth in our program that the highest heights are within reach!
Congratulations, Carlos! Your ILP family is cheering you on as you head to New Jersey. We can't wait to see the impact you make on the world.
