About Y-Scholars

 

The Y-Scholars Program is a free after-school program that works with
first-generation and low-income students in grades 9-12, preparing them to
pursue higher education through career exploration and academic achievement.
Services include: weekly workshops covering topics ranging from study skills
to college exploration, mentoring, after-school tutoring, SAT preparatory
classes, college tours, social events, and much more.

 

In addition, all 12th grade participants receive weekly individual advising
on exploring college majors and potential careers, and completing college
and financial assistance applications. 

 

With an emphasis on relationship building and coaching, the Y-Scholars
Program supports high school students by improving their academic skills,
developing their CLASP character strengths, and assisting them in making
informed decisions about higher education. Applications are required and
accepted on a rolling basis.
