Franklin & Marshall College
Franklin & Marshall College (Lancaster, PA) is using its College Advising Corps grant to develop a college access network in partnership with three other public and private institutions – Dickinson College, Millersville University, and Shippensburg University. Over a four-year period, this network will provide a total of 2,400 students in 11 high schools throughout central Pennsylvania with one-on-one college advising services. Recent studies in Pennsylvania found that only 50 to 63 percent of students graduating from these high schools plan to attend college and even fewer actually graduate. To increase college enrollment and graduation among deserving, low-income students, Franklin & Marshall and its partners recruit new college graduates to serve as full-time advisers to the high schools. Students meet with advisers to review college admission requirements and get advice on how to satisfy the requirements.
