ATLANTA – Following back-to-back successful summers helping bridge the transition to Georgia State, Summer Bridge has returned to assist student-athletes during their first semester on campus.
Incoming student-athletes will meet for the first time this week with a goal of easing the transition from high school or other schools to Georgia State. The program started two summers ago from the vision of Associate Athletic Director for Student-Athlete Development Brad Horton. It was immediately successful allowing Assistant Athletic Director for Career Services and Life Skills Michael Stovall to expand the program once again this year.
Summer Bridge started with an orientation session on Sunday where parents and student-athletes were introduced to the program, academics and Life Skills.
