Our Program CollegeWorks collaborates with high schools and youth organizations to identify high achieving, low-income students committed to directly attending and graduating from four-year colleges and universities throughout the country. CollegeWorks programming is based on teaching students and families to understand the college selection, admissions and financial aid process and become aware of their full range of higher education opportunities. Our personal college counseling support begins in the junior year of high school and continues through college. There are no costs to students and families for our services.
