Applications are now open for the next cohort of Elon Academy students, with faculty and staff invited to help expand access to the college access and success program.

Jasmine Walker ’25 grew up in Alamance County and now, through ÁñÁ«app¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾Èë Year of Service Fellows Program, she’s getting the opportunity to give back and learn from her community.

Scholars in the Elon Academy engaged in a winter service project for Alamance County Allied Churches, reflecting a renewed commitment to integrating community service and well-being into Elon Academy's programming.

Manny Campos and Stephanie Hernández Rivera completed the LatinxEd Fellowship, a statewide program focused on educational access and equity. Both returned to Elon with renewed purpose shaped by the retreat and graduation experiences.

For Edward Hernandez ’27, legacy is rooted in family, heritage and community. From leading LHU and El Centro to mentoring future scholars, his Elon journey reflects the power of giving back and the importance of celebrating Hispanic and Latinx voices.

For the second consecutive year, the university has been recognized by Insight Into Academia, the oldest and largest diversity-focused publication in higher education, for its commitment to academic excellence, belonging, and community building.

While Elon Academy students are not required to attend ÁñÁ«app¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾Èë, the Elon Class of 2029 features the most students ever from the university’s college-access program.

ÁñÁ«app¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾Èë is featuring a variety of photos every month to highlight the exceptional learning, work and activities of students, faculty and staff.

Seventy high schoolers will spend the next three weeks taking classes and building relationships through ÁñÁ«app¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾Èë’s college access and success program for academically promising students in Alamance County with a financial need or no family history of college.
