This month, high school seniors throughout the country will receive college notifications, but for many of the highest-achieving, low-income students, a college education is not in their future. New Jersey SEEDS’ College Scholars Program is a determined response to a pressing local, regional and national need. The data show that the top low-income students may enroll in a four-year college, but the vast majority of these students will not apply to a single selective college or university, which are exactly the schools with the resources to enable them to complete their educations. It is our goal to ensure that exceptional students achieve advanced academic success regardless of their economic status.

“Since enrolling in the College Preparatory Program, our scholars have spent more than 700 hours with SEEDS,” explains President Ronni Denes. “They have a deep understanding of the importance of college to their economic mobility and were willing to spend each Saturday during the past three school years and two weeks each summer advancing their education. They engaged in rigorous academic classes and students worked closely with SEEDS staff and volunteer mentors to complete college applications and navigate the financial aid process.”
