  • College Success Program

    Our program is a need-based college success program for Berkeley public high school graduates who attend a bachelor's degree-granting institution immediately after high school or who advance on a path to earn a bachelor's degree that begins at community college. We provide 3-tiers of service to program participants: 1) Scholarship dollars ($500-$2000 /semester) 2) Case management and coaching by professional college success advisors who support students through academic, socio-emotional and financial decisions; and 3) mentorship from community volunteers who provide moral support and share their social capital and connections. As of FY2021, 77% of our scholars have earned their bachelor's degree.
