Every year, we at The Adroit Journal support a brilliant class of high school seniors who apply and make the transition from high school writers into college writers. We’re honored to share the matriculation list of this year’s class of senior mentorship students and staff readers!
This year, Columbia University leads the pack, claiming eight Adroit seniors for its incoming freshman class. Stanford University, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University follow, with four Adroit seniors packing for each.
We wish each of the below thirty-eight students the best as they embark on their next chapters, and hope they’ll stay in touch! (We have a feeling they will.)
