Carolina College Advising Corps

The Carolina College Advising Corps helps low-income, first-generation, and underrepresented students find their way to colleges that will serve them well. By providing well-trained, enthusiastic advisers who are close in circumstance to the students they serve, the program aims to increase college-going rates at partner high schools across North Carolina. 

College advisers are placed in high schools across North Carolina and are immersed in the school culture. They expose students to career opportunities, help them navigate financial processes like the FAFSA, support them in completing college applications, and coordinate campus tours. By serving as near peer mentors, college advisers help young people across NC chart their path for life after high school.
