Helping More Students Access Advanced Coursework in High School
College Now provides students at over 400 NYC high schools the chance to take free CUNY courses, increasing the likelihood that students will enroll in college and graduate. We are collaborating with CUNY to expand the number of students accessing College Now, focusing on historically underrepresented groups such as Black and Latino males. Through the New Visions Portal, we are identifying and reaching out to eligible students, providing counselors and CUNY staff with real-time information about application progress to support students through enrollment, and streamlining the application to give more students access to this valuable opportunity.
