TeenSHARP prepares Black, Latino, and low-income students for top colleges and ensures they graduate with generous scholarships and financial aid packages. Services include individualized college guidance and application support, college awareness boot camps for students and parents, intensive Saturday sessions where students take rigorous college-level courses, and leadership training. A Family Program ensures caregivers are involved and provides holistic support for students.
Year after year, 100 percent of TeenSHARP scholars successfully pursue a 4-year college education, with 95 percent admitted to the most selective colleges, and the majority graduating with $15,000 or less in college debt. TeenSHARP's mission is in service of a bold vision that, one day, the diversity of our country’s top jobs and most influential leadership positions will reflect the country's rich diversity.
The application process is still open, but TeenSHARP expects to have its next class selected by the end of June. Students and families interested in learning more should visit here, while applicants can visit here.
