We're thrilled to announce the continued collaboration between College Possible and @NBAFoundation. Together, we're working to remove obstacles to higher education for students of color and students from low-income communities. Go @chicagobulls! bit.ly/3SpHJMI
Our team has been working with students and their parents to help them navigate the changes to FAFSA, as mentioned here by Program Director Elve Mitchell. When costs are manageable, students from low-income backgrounds are more likely to enroll and persist through college.
