School Counseling

School counselors help students plan and prepare for postsecondary success.

Rigorous Curriculum

Access to a college-preparatory curriculum enables high school students to develop the academic skills they need to succeed when they graduate.

Need-Based Financial Aid

As college costs rise, need-based financial aid is essential to keeping postsecondary education attainable for all students.

Student Protections

Lax government oversight and corporate priorities result in students being taken advantage of by unscrupulous institutions.

Undocumented Students

Expanding access to affordable higher education for undocumented students benefits individuals as well as the country's economy.
