College Track, East Palo Alto

College Track is a national college completion program that empowers students from underserved communities to graduate from college. From ninth grade through college graduation, our 10-year program removes the 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 equip them with the skills necessary to become competitive college applicants, thrive on a four-year campus, and achieve success post-graduation.

College Track started in 1997 with a cohort of 25 students in East Palo Alto. Today, we empower more than 3,000 high school and college students in across California, Colorado, Louisiana, and the D.C. Metro Area. Today, our students graduate from college at a rate that is more than double the national average for low-income and first-generation students. Furthermore, our students who start at a four-year college or university graduate at even higher rates, surpassing both their low-income peers and the general student population, regardless of socioeconomic status.
