I want to start by saying thank you so much! Thank you so much for the incredible opportunity to participate in the INPSIRE program at Rosalind Franklin University. I truly appreciate the guidance, support and knowledge growth, I have been given in this wonderful program. I came in wanting to major in Nursing because I want to help people feel better, and now as I leave I am more than encouraged to continue my dream. Everyone was wonderful and {I} was taught so many things I would never have thought I would learn as a 17 year old. I felt like I was in a super fun college.

I'd like to first thank you for making this program {INSPIRE} possible for students who are often put at an disadvantage when pursuing education. This program has given me hope, a pathway for my future, an outlet to do what I love & above all, aid those in my community along with those around the world. The networking event was one of the best socializing events I had the honor of being a part of, allowed me to build new connections & helped me be more confident while bringing me out of the fear of making a bad impression. Thank you for helping me be myself!

Thank you so much for funding the INSPIRE program and giving me the opportunity to gain healthcare and research experience. I'm truly grateful. Without it, pursuing my dream of becoming a doctor would feel so much more difficult. This experience has motivated me even more and given me a valuable glimpse into the medical field.

Thank you so much for making the INSPIRE program possible! I am so thankful for your support & generosity. Being a part of INSPIRE has granted me so many rewarding research opportunities. For example, I've learned interdisciplinary research methods in health psychology & behavioral neuroscience, and I'm the 2nd author of a poster being presented at a conference in Sydney, Australia this August. The INSPIRE program has been essential building my passion for medicine & research, which has led me to pursue an MD/PhD combined degree program. I believe the experience I've gained through INSPIRE was an essential part of my medical school applications, leading to my recent conditional acceptance to the Chicago Medical School's class of 2030. Currently I'm working on applying to MD/PhD programs & entering my senior year at DePaul. Again, thank you so much for your support!

Thank you for making INSPIRE possible. INSPIRE has taught me that pursuing a career in healthcare isn't an unreachable goal. I have enjoyed my summers full of learning, passionate students, and support.

I want to sincerely thank you for making the INSPIRE program possible. This experience has been truly impactful and has given me the valuable insight into the world of medical research. From the hands-on learning, to the guidance from our mentors and PA's. Every part of this program has helped me grow both personally and academically. Your dedication to creating opportunities for students like me doesn't go unnoticed. Because of this program, I now feel more confident in pursuing a future in healthcare and more motivated than ever to continue learning and making a difference. I'm so incredibly grateful for being part of this amazing experience.

Thank you for your support to the Inspire Program. Through your contributions I've had the chance to work in real labs and learn more about the path to medical school, making a big difference in my journey! You are helping us turn possibilities into progress. Thank you so much!

CPASS has been a pivotal force in my medical journey. They have not only supported me during my board exams but have also provided me with the opportunity to inspire younger generations of healthcare providers towards a rewarding profession with the potential to reach and care for diverse communities.

I was able to get more networking opportunities from the STEMM Scholars Academy and a better insight on the field I want to go into after I graduate high school.

At the STEMM Scholars Academy I gained more connections with a variety of different people and I was able to learn more about computer science related subjects.

The STEMM Scholars Academy has given me long lasting relationships and new opportunities!

Volunteering with the CPASS Foundation was an incredibly rewarding experience. Sharing my journey as a construction manager with the children was a true highlight. Seeing their curiosity and enthusiasm for STEM was inspiring. It was a pleasure to connect with the next generation of potential engineers, builders, and innovators. I left feeling hopeful and excited about the future of STEM, knowing these bright minds are on their way. I highly recommend volunteering with the CPASS Foundation to anyone looking to make a meaningful impact!

I truly appreciated how CPASS Test Prep provided a wealth of resources to help me prepare for the MACT exam. The complete Kaplan MCAT books, Saturday sessions, Kaplan Live, and numerous practice exams gave me the structure and support I needed to stay on track with my studying. Beyond test prep, the career prep sessions (especially the resume review workshop and cover letter and personal statement preparation) helped me get a head start on my application and receive valuable professional feedback. That said, balancing studying with my coursework during the school year was definitely a challenge. I wish I had access to these resources over the summer when I could have dedicated more time to making the most of everything available. Still, this experience was incredibly valuable, not just in preparing for the exam but in shaping my academic and professional journey. It also reinforced my passion for supporting others through community-driven initiatives, something I hope to continue in my career.
