Sinclair Community College in Dayton, OH, offered a scholarship to Antwuan McCoy after seeing the People magazine story. With an enrollment of 24,000 students, Sinclair is one of the largest community colleges in the country. The school offers transfer programs to four-year universities, but specializes in direct-to-work programs, such as health and engineering, and retraining for workers.
Antwuan is talking to Sinclair now about starting school in the summer, and while plans haven’t been finalized, it does appear to be a go.
If you would like to support Antwuan in any way in his quest to go to college, please contact Lisaat Day Break Dayton where he is currently staying.
