Are you a current high school junior attending a Durham NC public or charter school who’s wondering how best to navigate the path to college? Are you worried about missing a deadline, putting together a great application, or how to pay for school? 

LAUNCH! is a one-year program offered to Durham students during the spring of their junior year and the fall of their senior year who could use a hand as they prepare for next steps after high school. 

Through five (Saturday afternoon) sessions, three campus tours and resources to assist during the actual application period in the Fall, LAUNCH! provides guidance, platform subscriptions, funding for test registrations, personalized consultations and mentoring support to a limited number of students free of cost. 

Registration is open NOW for 2026, so be sure to scan the QR or click HERE to let us know that you would like to participate!

Can’t wait to prepare for Lift Off with YOU!!
