One Saturday a month - Intensive Prep Session
Wednesday and Thursday: 5+ hours total across both days will be dedicated to assessment, progress analysis and individualized academic preparation, ensuring each student follows a personalized pathway aligned to their specific strengths and growth areas.
Additional Program Components
Program will run interview prep for all college-bound students who need it, ensuring comprehensive college readiness.
Students who achieve a 30+ composite score remain enrolled but transition to individualized or small-group preparation designed to further refine and elevate their scores.
Our persistence and postsecondary performance data show that while students are gaining access to highly selective institutions, many are not yet academically prepared to thrive once enrolled. As a result, we must provide intentional, rigorous preparation outside of the normal academic day for students matriculating to Ivy and Ivy-adjacent institutions. This preparation includes sustained college-level reading and writing, advanced analytical problem sets, and structured academic skill-building designed to mirror the expectations they will encounter on campus.
Proactively build academic preparedness programming within College Access:

Key Requirements:
Example Challenge: Addressing situations where ACT prep students' grades and courses are misaligned with their goal colleges — such as top ACT scorers not enrolled in AP Lang, or students with strong grades having unexplained course failures.
