Financial Aid Completion Rate Doubles In Deep South Texas

“Knowing our students and knowing our community has helped us to bring about programming that is going to fit their needs.”

These changes are already seeing results: financial aid completion rates have nearly doubled from the previous year, and 99% of current students have submitted at least one college application.

“It’s amazing to see how just by sharing information and having a conversation, [students are] able to see a future,” says college advisor Cecilia Flores. “I want to continue making those kinds of changes in kids' lives.”
