You don’t have to navigate college alone.
College Support Program CV provides a dedicated two-year safety net — weekly 1-on-1 success coaching, 1-on-1 STEM tutoring, and bi-weekly peer check-ins — at 100% zero cost to you or your family, from the summer before freshman year through the end of sophomore year.
Expanding Our Reach Valley-Wide!
We are thrilled to announce that 30 exceptional students will be invited to join Cohort #1 of College Support Program Coachella Valley (CSPCV)! As part of our commitment to extending high-touch college support across our entire region, we will select 10 scholars from each of our three local school districts: Desert Sands, Coachella Valley, and Palm Springs Unified. We look forward to welcoming these bright students and their families into the CSPCV community as we embark on this exciting journey toward university graduation together.
