Angelina's Story

My passion is psychology. I discovered my passion for psychology because I was always interested in the reasoning behind why humans behave or act a certain way. I grew up with some family members that had to deal with either mental disorders or learning disabilities, and so I always wanted to know how I would be able to help them. It fascinates me why people behave or feel certain emotions so it has always been a interest of mine since it affects the people that are close to me. This has always been been my motivation and drive for me to find opportunities that relate to psychology to help me get a better understanding of the topic. Boston University Summer Challenge will help me do just that.

A Note from Ms. Degleris, Angelina's Teacher

Not only has Angelina managed to maintain an outstanding GPA, she has done so in an extremely rigorous academic program. She is extremely dedicated and mature, and still manages to easily maintain her friendships. She is a pleasure to have in class, her enthusiasm is infectious and I have no doubt she is a fantastic candidate for Boston University Summer Challenge! Additionally, I think it would be great for Angelina to have a chance to explore her interest in Psychology in an academic setting. I'm sure she would take advantage of every opportunity to further her knowledge as a scholar and develop as a young adult.

Summer Challenge Program

I have currently finished my Summer Challenge Program at Boston University and it has been an eye opening experience. Being exposed to Psychology has allowed me to consider many of the career options that are available. I am very thankful for all of your donations towards this program because I wouldn't have been able to take on this challenge without them.

Excited for Boston University!

I am definitely excited for being able to study psychology and discover the many career options that come with it! I am also excited about the opportunity to be able to stay in a dorm on a college campus, which will allow me to get the feel of what it’s like before actually attending a college.

Success! Ms. Degleris helped Angelina raise $4,000
