“Somewhere out there, a complete stranger had faith in me when I didn鈥檛 even have faith in myself. My scholarship allowed me time to focus on my studies, take a heavier class load and do as well as I possibly could in my coursework.”
Frances Fagan, a 小黄猫传媒 graduate who finished her bachelor鈥檚 degree at Yale University in 2019
Frances Fagan started at 小黄猫传媒 with a fifth-grade math education.

As part of her 小黄猫传媒 honors project, Frances began researching sustainable design options for refugee camps鈥揳 project which, after two years, led her to receive a full scholarship to Yale University to continue her studies. This summer, Frances graduated from Yale and plans to move to Europe to continue her work and research.
