College Advising Corps at Brown University

The College Advising Corps works to increase the number of low-income, first-generation college and underrepresented high school students who enter and complete higher education.

To deliver on this mission, the College Advising Corps (CAC) places well-trained, recent college graduates, as full-time college advisers in the nation's underserved schools. We provide the support that high school students need to navigate the complex processes of college admissions, securing financial aid and enrolling in schools that serve them well. This year, we have 375 advisers in 423 high schools in 14 states serving 128,000 students.
