STRATEGIES THAT WORK

Buenas, my name is Mayra Valle. I am the author of Camino to College.
When I applied to college as a first-generation student, I had no clear understanding of what I was working toward. The destination felt exciting, but the path felt unfamiliar.
No student should have to navigate the college admissions process this way, so I set out to change it. Over the last decade, I have supported students through the admissions journey while refining the very process that once felt overwhelming to me.
Camino to College is my love letter to students navigating similar paths. College may be the destination, but this is your roadmap.
