On National College Decision Day, the Urban League of Greater Hartford celebrated a number of graduating seniors.
Students who participated in their 'Project Ready' program were in the spotlight as they announced their college plans at an event called College Signing Day.
"I will be attending Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland in the fall," Joelle Thomas of Hartford said.
Thomas got involved in Project Ready when she was a sophomore in high school. She said the program got her thinking about college and gave students like her the ability to tour schools in and out of state.
"I've always wanted to go to an HBCU, and I'm glad I found one that's close to home," Thomas said.
