As the cost of higher educationcontinues to rise, the odds of completingany degree or certification drop lowereach year. To boost those odds not onlyin graduating college students but increating a college-going culture amongunderrepresented high school students,San Jacinto College has partnered withPasadena ISD and Good Reason Houstonas participants in the Harris CountyPromise program.

High school seniors from Pasadena ISD’sDobie High School, Sam Rayburn HighSchool, and South Houston High Schoolnow have an opportunity to have theirtuition and fees at San Jacinto College paidin full by becoming Harris County PromiseScholars. The Harris County Promiseprogram is available to Texas resident highschool seniors, regardless of GPA or familyincome. Eligible seniors who becomePromise Scholars receive up to three yearsof guaranteed tuition and fees, assistancewith books, and additional support tohelp them complete their degrees. Otherparticipating Houston-area school districtsinclude Aldine ISD (Aldine Senior HighSchool, Eisenhower High School, andNimitz High School) and Alief ISD (TaylorHigh School) with partnerships with LoneStar College and Houston CommunityCollege, respectively.

“San Jacinto College’s partnership withGood Reason Houston for the HarrisCounty Promise program is transformative

for our community and the students weserve,” said Jose DeJesusGil, San JacintoCollege director of outreach and recruiting.“We have an incredible opportunity tosupport the college-going culture forunderrepresented students and impact theeducation attainment levels in our area.”

Dobie High School student JenniferCarcamo says joining the Promise programmeans that her parents don’t have toworry about any financial sacrifice tosend her to college.

“I was worried I wasn’t going to be ableto go to college since it’s really expensive,and my parents wouldn’t be able to affordto send me, especially with my other twosisters in school,” she said. “When I toldthem about the Promise program, it was abig relief for all of us, and they were happy

to know I would be able to go tocollege now.”

Promise is a last-dollar scholarshipprogram covering the cost of tuition andfees at San Jacinto College. “Last-dollar”means the scholarship kicks in after allother grant and scholarship funding hasbeen applied. To be eligible, students mustqualify for in-district tuition (reside in theCollege’s taxing district), and complete allsteps by their associated deadline.

Promise Scholars also receive extraperks when they enroll in a partnercollege, including their own success coachto help navigate college life. The PromisePledge is the first step in the process.It is not binding, and students are notrequired to attend a Promise College.

Having extra help is something TatyanaJohnson, also a Dobie High School senior,feels is important as a college freshman.

“I was getting anxiety and feeling liketime was running out as far as whereI was going to attend college this fall,”said Johnson. “Even though my gradesand GPA were good, I still wasn’t gettingaccepted into the colleges and universitiesI had applied to, and I remembered SanJac had the Promise program. After talkingto my parents about it, they were really

supportive and thought it was the bestidea so that I could take my time and getmore courses out of the way before goingto a big university.”

Johnson adds that asking for help isone of the best things high school andcollege students can do to advocatefor themselves.

“Don’t be afraid to talk to your teachersand ask for the extra help you need.It will only benefit you in the long run,”Johnson said.

Scholarships continued from page 2The 10 students—Kimberly Alencastro, Krista Byers,

Emelly Cristino, Matthew Flores, Eric Gerard, AustinGreen, Keelie Morgan, Anthony Torres, Brandy Watkins,and Charles Wilson—were chosen based on several criteria.

Each student must have participated and held leadershipin either the Process Technology Club or InstrumentationTechnology ISA Ship Channel Section, maintained a GPAof 3.0 or higher, and proven community service.

“We wanted to choose students who are well-roundedand a positive reflection on San Jacinto College,” Griffinsaid. “We considered attendance and punctuality. Are they

a team player? Are they an individual starter? I couldn’tbe prouder of this group of students, especially with theunexpected changes with COVID-19.”

The students, many of whom joined the call from theirday jobs, were shocked at the news. They will each be ableto use the funds to complete their degree plans at no cost.

“I was so happy at the scholarship news,” said Watkins,an instrumentation student at CPET. “My glasses startedfogging up and everything! I feel so blessed right now, and Ijust want to say thank you so much. I don’t think I’ve everbeen so thoroughly surprised.”

LyondellBasell, which announced its partnership

as naming sponsor of CPET at the grand opening inSeptember last year, hopes to continue to strengthen thepartnership with San Jacinto College.

“We could not be prouder of these students and theirdedication to their education and for being the embodimentof the San Jacinto values. These scholarships providean incredible opportunity to our students, and we couldnot be more grateful,” said Dr. Hellyer. “Our partnershiphas already done so much to open doors for studentsand to offer industry-leading resources and networkingconnections for our future workforce, and we’re so gratefulto LyondellBasell for its commitment to San Jac.”

What are your strengths andweaknesses? How do you handle upsetpatients? What makes you the bestcandidate for this position?

Sitting across from their interviewers,medical assistant students have ditchedscrubs and medical terminology forslacks, blouses, and employment speak.It looks like an actual job interview.But it’s the next best thing: mockinterview day.

These San Jacinto College MedicalAssistant Program students at the NorthCampus are honing their job interviewskills with help from the College’s careerservices office.

Connecting the dotsCareer services walks students

through the entire job applicationprocess, from portfolio preparationto in-person presentation. Aftercareer services presentations in class,medical assistant instructors buildjob preparation assignments into thecoursework. By semester end, studentshave assembled portfolios with resumes,cover letters, and references to usefor interviews.

Each fall and spring, medical assistantstudents test their skills by participatingin a mock interview day. Studentsbegin by receiving a mock company andposition they are applying for. Afterfilling out an application, they sit withan interviewer—career services staff orhealth science faculty—to discuss skillsand experience.

Kelly Folkerts, medical assistant

instructor, created mock interviewday because some students havenever experienced job interviews.While faculty members cover verbalpresentation skills, they also addressstudents’ digital footprint andwork wardrobe.

“We discuss various cases wheresocial media posts have affected futureor current employment,” Folkertssaid. “Also, professional dress is notonly important for interviewing, butalso important when students start toadvance into administrative positions.”

Cultivating confidenceMock interview day is not medical

assistant student Charity Vidock’s firstrodeo. Vidock has worked almost twodecades at assisted living facilities. Shecurrently holds a full-time supervisorjob while attending the College full time.

“Even though I’ve had experiencewith interviews before, this mockinterview event was very good,” shesaid. “I still get the nerves. I have to beput in a situation to acclimate myself.”

Sporting a crisp Oxford shirt undera gray leopard-print sweater, Vidockexudes experience, but she still learnedfrom the event. Her biggest takeaway?Confidence speaks for itself.

“I learned I don’t have to list myaccomplishments for the interviewer,”Vidock said. “(My interviewer)told me, ‘Your interview will outshineyour resume.’”

Stephanie Vazquez chose theaccessible, flexible medical assistantprogram as a gateway to the medical

field. Less seasoned in the jobapplication process, she learned theimportance of preparation.

“Before the event, I put together myportfolio, which included my resume,cover letter, education, employment,references, and certificates,” Vazquezsaid. “I surprised myself that I did agood job. I was prepared and relaxed.”

Interviewer Jennifer Cerda, SouthCampus career services specialist, givesfeedback after each interview, thenfills out a scoring rubric. Students willreceive these results in class next weekso they can examine their strengthsand weaknesses.

“We’re trying to embed into them towork on these skills ahead of time, toget them to prepare long- and short-termgoals,” Cerda said. “These are skills theycan use whether they’re interviewing fora four-year university or for a career.”

Finding the perfect matchCareer services offers resume

development, mock interviews, careerassessment, counseling, and job searchhelp. Throughout the year, staff alsoholds industry-specific career fairs,panel discussions, and workshops ateach campus.

Donisha Moss, North Campus careerservices coordinator, says these eventspolish students for any interview,especially if they have no workexperience.

“They may have the skills andcredentials necessary to be successfulin the workplace but may not be assuccessful in communicating that toemployers. We’re here to help,”Moss said.

Her advice to job applicants?“Take a deep breath. Practice,

practice, practice!” she said. “Come tocareer services and schedule a mockinterview. Make sure you do yourresearch about the company, and don’tforget to make sure the company is agood fit for you.”
