Congratulations to UCNJ student Katherine Jovel, one of 60 high-achieving community college students selected to receive the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation’s Undergraduate Transfer Scholarship 🎉

This scholarship can provide Katherine with as much as $55,000 a year to complete a bachelor’s degree 👏

Katherine is majoring in business and is a member of Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, the Union Honors Program, and the Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF).

She served as a tutor in the Academic Learning Center, participated in the 2025 Princeton Transfer Scholars Initiative cohort, and was selected for the 2026 Susan N. Wilson NEW Leadership New Jersey Program.

After graduating from UCNJ, she plans to transfer to a four-year university to study economics and aspires to develop educational support systems for marginalized communities.

After earning her bachelor’s degree, she intends to pursue law school, with a focus on education or immigration law.
