“This was an amazing experience! I loved learning from seasoned professionals. I’m so grateful for this program, and the fact I got matched with a mentor who could further help me with the college and career process.”

“This experience was invaluable in building my confidence in my professional abilities. Beyond this, it instilled me with a greater sense of initiative with respect to seizing opportunities.”

“Overall, the experience was exceptional, providing valuable opportunities to learn and grow. The office hours were particularly beneficial, as they allowed us to ask questions and delve deeper into topics that piqued our curiosity.”

“This was absolutely one of the most insightful experiences I’ve ever had. I enjoyed every last minute of getting the most useful advice I could ever imagine. As a first-generation, low-income student, this is definitely one of the top resources to prepare me not only for college, but for every step in life for my career following university or high school. I look forward to using these tips in my life and I thank Esat Bayar and the Bayar Fellowship team for all their work and generosity!”

“This fellowship, although short, was very impactful. The information is something all students of our age should be educated about, and the fact that Mr. Bayar has went out of his way to create this fellowship is absolutely amazing. I’m so grateful to have been granted the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful community of fellows, with students around my age who all have similar goals to myself.”

“This fellowship has been so informative in teaching me how I can move forward in my academic and professional career in an accessible one-week program. We covered so many vital professional topics that school may not actively teach but are definitely super essential to one’s success. It has been such an incredible opportunity to have all these lessons which are commonly dispersed and hard to find all in one program.”
