The College Access Program strengthens and promotes college access, readiness, enrollment, and persistence.

The College Access Program is built around three key pillars: helping students clarify their post-secondary goals, encouraging exploration of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and providing robust scholarship support. The program offers exclusive scholarships for graduates, along with hands-on support for identifying and applying to a wide range of financial aid options. This comprehensive approach ensures students are equipped with the knowledge, resources, and funding to confidently pursue their next steps.

Post-Grad Launchpad

The College Access Program (CAP) encourages graduates and alumni to explore and clarify their post-secondary goals. Whether students are considering a university, community college, or vocational school, CAP offers personalized guidance to help them think through their options and conduct meaningful research into both local and nationwide opportunities. Through one-on-one support and access to curated resources, graduates are empowered to make informed decisions about their future pathways.

Scholarships

CAP provides students with robust support in navigating the scholarship process. In addition to helping students identify and apply for local, national, merit-based, and need-based scholarships, the program offers exclusive scholarships available only to Learn4Life graduates. Students receive personalized guidance on organizing deadlines, crafting strong essays, and securing recommendation letters. This targeted support ensures students are well-positioned to access financial aid and pursue their post-secondary goals with confidence.

HBCUs

CAP encourages students to explore Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) as part of their post-secondary options. CAP provides resources to help students understand the unique cultural, academic, and community benefits of attending an HBCU. It also offers support with researching schools, navigating application processes, and identifying scholarships specifically available to HBCU-bound students. Through this guidance, students are empowered to consider institutions that align with their values, goals, and identities.
