College Track is a comprehensive college completion program that equips students confronting systemic barriers to earn a bachelor's degree, in pursuit of a life of opportunity, choice, and power. From ninth grade through college graduation, College Track's 10-year program removes the academic, financial, and social-emotional barriers that prevent low-income and first-generation students from earning their college degree. In 1997, College Track started with 27 students in East Palo Alto, and today, there are twelve centers located in communities across California, Colorado, and Louisiana, with more than 3,000 students on the path to upward social mobility.
