HBCU Signing Day honors high school seniors who have committed to attending HBCUs,
recognizing their academic achievements and the beginning of their journey toward higher
education. Inspired by National Signing Days for student-athletes, this event uplifts the academic achievements and future dreams of students who are choosing to continue their education at institutions that have historically nurtured Black excellence, leadership, and legacy. HBCUs account for only 3% of the country's colleges/universities, but graduate over 20% of all African Americans, producing many of the country's top executives, doctors, actors and scientists. "HBCU Signing Day is more than a celebration — it's a movement of excellence that provides students with the resources, relationships, and encouragement they need to succeed academically, socially, and beyond. In this era of diversity and inclusion, it's essential that we honor and uplift the pride, legacy, and culture of the Historically Black College and University community while welcoming the newest members into this elite family," said William S. Parrish, Jr., founder of HBCU Greatness and President of the North Jersey Chapter Hampton Alumni Association.
