How Broward College Helped Jean Saintgeorges Achieve the Education of his Dreams

When Broward College student Jean Saintgeorges was awarded the 2023 Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship, he received hundreds of messages of congratulations. Friends, faculty, and family were proud of his achievement: a scholarship worth up to $55,000 per year for use toward tuition, living expenses, books, and required fees to complete his bachelor’s degree. But while many were impressed, few were surprised.

After all, to everyone who knew him, Jean was already the kind of high-achieving individual who had the ability to impact lives and change the world around him. At Broward College, he arrived with a desire to make a difference — in his own life and in the lives of others. Broward College simply showed him the way.

Where do we go from here?

Jean is passionate about math, business, and accounting. He hopes to take his academic excellence and community service passions to a university where he can earn a bachelor’s degree in

Accounting and a master’s in Business Administration. He aspires to be a certified public accountant and work in the private sector before owning his own accounting firm. No matter which university he decides to attend, he is confident he will be able to navigate life’s uncertainties and overcome any obstacle that stands in his way. Broward College helped him prove he’s capable of anything.
