Holley has spent her career in higher education working on college access initiatives and the recruitment and selection of admissions candidates. She began her career in college admissions at Georgia Highlands College working with dual enrollment students and first generation students who needed assistance with their college transition. After spending two years at Georgia Highlands College, she went on to work for Emory University then Georgia Institute of Technology. Chelsea received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication from Valdosta State University and a Masters in Higher Education Leadership from Columbus State University. She is currently completing her PhD in sociology at Georgia State and is researching the ways in which high achieving Black students navigate their path to selective institutions. Holley is a proud Cobb County native and a graduate of Marietta High School.
At the luncheon, Holley will also give information about college admissions to help students successfully navigate their way to college. CEW members are welcome to invite guests that have college-age children who would benefit from this luncheon. Lunch will be provided by Copeland’s of New Orleans.
