Review for The Opportunity Network, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

What is there to say about The Opportunity Network except that is a "Great Nonprofit." OppNet was essential in my growth in a number of ways, whether it was academically, socially or professionally OppNet is definitely key to my previous successes and will continue to be. The special part about OppNet was the fact that while I was growing through the program, they too was constantly growing and trying to improve their outreach and impact.

Without OppNet I could not imagine having experienced opportunities to meet various wonderful professionals to network with as well as socially connect with students that share the same ambition and drive for future success. OppNet made things I did not know would be possible for me, especially during the time of high school would be possible. For instance, going to my best-fit college with enough support in many ways to feel comfortable and thrive. When you have the tools academically, but do not have the resources to make the goal happen, one may think that their options or opportunities are limited. It is nonprofits like OppNet that make things like traveling abroad for the summer, doing research or taking courses at universities, participating in internships at prestigious companies possible. Along with having the academic tools, they give you the professional tools of networking to over time allow you to find your own opportunities.

If I could describe OppNet in a matter of a few words it would be: OppNet is definitely one of the best!
