We provide guidance and help with almost all areas of the school entry/re-entry process: school tours, career decisions, admissions, placement testing, veterans’ and other financial aid (including the “Free Application for Federal Student Aid” or FAFSA), and enrollment in classes.

 

Two-thirds of all Talent Search participants must be of limited income and potentially be among the first generation of their families to graduate from a four-year college.
