Workshop: Faith as Your Admissions Ticket - Islamic Values and College Success

What if the very things that make your child a proud Muslim could also make them irresistible to top colleges? In this inspiring workshop, Harvard graduate Br. Hamzah Henshaw — founder of Five Before College and college advisor to hundreds of Muslim teens — shares the secrets behind turning Islamic values into a competitive edge in the admissions process. Br. Hamzah has helped students gain admission to schools like Harvard, MIT, Penn, Brown, and Dartmouth — not by hiding their faith, but by building a story rooted in it. This session is for families who believe that dunya and akhirah success shouldn’t be in conflict. Learn how barakah, purpose, and prophetic vision can guide your student toward both college success and lifelong impact. Perfect for students in grades 7–12 and their parents. Come ready to think big, reflect deeply, and leave with a practical roadmap for the years ahead. Sunday, October 4th | 4:30 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. | MCC Conference Room | RSVP at mcceastbay.org/college-prep About Hamzah Henshaw:
