“LEAD Scholars not only helped me to become successful during my time at UCF, but has continued to help me by defining my career path. My involvement as a LEAD Scholar connected me with organizations, friends, and mentors that inspired me to discover my passion. LEAD instilled in me the knowledge, skills, and confidence to pursue this passion as a career. I am extremely grateful to LEAD Scholars and to the outstanding staff for the positive impact they have had on me and for the guidance and support I know they will always provide to me.”
