Nicole's Story

My passion is Pre-College.

I've always wanted a head start in life ever since I was small. I wanted to be advanced in everything I did and I've always worked with the end goal in mind: getting into a top university and making a name for myself. Anything college related, anything that will help me prepare for college myself, has always been an interest of mine. A Pre-College program would be exactly what I need. I get to choose a couple of real college classes I may want to take for real in the future, getting to test them out and see if they're for me. I also get the college experience of going to and from different classes at different times a day, balancing a schedule much different from high school. One where I don't go from class to class to class one after the other throughout the day. A perfect mini college experience.

I want to thank everyone that contributed to my program this summer including the Wishbone team! I had so much fun at Brown University and I learned so much. I designed three original games during my program and I visited a lot of fun places in Providence including watching a concert and fireworks show in India Point Park on the 4th of July with my new friends. This was the opportunity of a lifetime and I'm so glad I got to take it.

I am going to be participating in the Summer@Brown Intro to Systems: Game Design and Learning course this summer. I'm really excited to join this program because game design is something I've never tried before and I think it's going to be fun but also a good challenge because it is a college course. This program will teach me something new.

I'm really looking forward to working in a college classroom and doing something that involves both technology and creativity. I chose this program because of its fun and out-of-the-box topic. I've always focused on medical programs because it's something I've always wanted to major in, but this broadens my horizons.

Success! Mr. Healey helped Nicole raise $4,096
