Did you know that 25% of first-generation college students drop out of college in just the first year and that only 27% make it to graduation in four years? Campus Bound Scholars was born 11 years ago to guide first-generation students from Westchester County, NY through the challenges and opportunities of college. The CBS program is designed to address issues that might derail vulnerable students, and to help them not only survive but thrive!
We do this by providing each student with a trained adult mentor to help navigate college challenges. Plus, CBS offers a dorm package for first year students, a monthly stipend to all students for incidental expenses as well as one-off emergency funds when necessary. Operational expenses are kept extremely low as virtually all of the work is done by dedicated volunteers, except for one part-time administrative assistant.
The result? 94% of Campus Bound Scholar students have graduated within their 4-5 year planned timetable!
