Closing the gaps | UNC-Chapel Hill

One year ago, Heather Jones ’17 was approaching her final months as a college adviser. In the two years after she graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill, she served in the Carolina College Advising Corps, helping students at Fike High School in Wilson, North Carolina, apply to and enroll in college. “As an adviser, I noticed that the cost of tuition was one of the biggest barriers for first-generation students, particularly students from low-income families and underrepresented backgrounds,” Jones said. Today, Jones is supporting 59 advisers serving at 76 high schools across the state as the financial aid and scholarships coordinator, a new position in the CCAC made possible by the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
