From the summer before ninth grade
through college graduation, our
10-year program removes barriers
that prevent students from earning
their college degree by providing
them with comprehensive academic
support, leadership training,
financial and college advising, and
scholarships. We teach our students
the skills necessary to succeed in
college and beyond.
College Track was founded in 1997.
Today, our program serves more
than 2,400 students across eight
communities. We have six sites in
California – East Palo Alto, Oakland,
San Francisco, Sacramento, and the
Los Angeles communities of Boyle
Heights and Watts – one site in New
Orleans, and one in Aurora, Colorado.
This year, 94 percent of our high
school seniors were accepted to fouryear colleges. Overall, our college
students are graduating at a rate that
is two and a half times the national
average for low-income* students.
