The Center for Academic Enrichment & Outreach is a set of federally-funded college opportunity programs designed to motivate and support students from disadvantaged backgrounds in their pursuit of a college degree.
The Center serves eligible participants who are low-income individuals, first-generation college students, and individuals with disabilities to progress through the academic pipeline from middle school to a post-baccalaureate degree.
The Center provides academic tutoring, personal counseling, mentoring, financial literacy and guidance, and other supports necessary for educational access, retention, and graduation. We provide direct support services for students, as well as relevant national training for directors and their staff.
