Public high-school students are invited to apply to a three-year program that is designed to prepare them for the SAT exam. The SAT Prep Program is being funded by Innovative and administered by the University of the Virgin Islands – Community Engagement and Lifelong Learning (UVICELL) Center.
Classes will be held from 9 a.m. to noon every Saturday starting March 10, at UVI’s St. Croix and St. Thomas campuses. Applicants must be 9th or 10th graders attending a public high school with a GPA of 2.0 to 3.5.
Now in its eighth year, the SAT Prep Program uses assessments, instruction, test-taking strategies and practice exams to aid students in improving their scores. Students are admitted in their freshman year and monitored over the course of their high school education in order to track their progress.
Interested applicants must submit their applications to the UVICELL Center by Friday, Feb. 17, to be considered. Space is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information or to request an application, call 693-1106 or visit cell.uvi.edu.
