What is unique about the Ozanam Scholars Program?
It gives students the opportunity to experience the world around them in way never thought of before. It provides an environment to make a student stronger and think more critically about the structures around them. Traveling both locally and internationally allows a Scholar to see a different part of the world, as well as themselves in a way that is unexpected and new. Ozanam Scholar is a title of significance, which one should wear proudly and protect. The community it creates extremely unique. For me, being a Scholar is all about experience the best of life, without letting any limitations stand in my way.
