College Track was founded by Laurene Powell Jobs and Carlos Watson in 1997, with the sole purpose to provide the resources needed for low-income students to develop the academic skills necessary to succeed in high school, college, and beyond. The importance of graduating college has never been as crucial, with college graduates having double the likelihood of finding employment and 1.6 times higher pay than high school graduates. College graduates are also twice as likely to vote and nearly five times more likely to volunteer. Today, College Track has provided an extensive range of academic support to over 2,000 students in eight underserved communities - more than 90 percent of them admitted to a 4-year college and over 640 students currently enrolled in college. Students who are also admitted to our 10-year national completion program 2.5 times higher college graduation rate than the national average for low-income students. Our services and programs include academic support in all subjects, ACT prep, academic counseling, credit recovery, math acceleration, extracurricular activities, community service, music and art programs, college campus tours, college application assistance, financial aid workshops, college mentoring, career counseling, scholarship support, internships, and more!
