Georgia State University

During the 2015-2016 school year, College Advising Corps launched its Atlanta-based program, CAC’s second in the state of Georgia.  In 2016-2017, 11 Atlanta-based advisers served in seven Atlanta Public Schools high schools and one KIPP school. In mid- 2017, the program transitioned to its new home at Georgia State University and remains a part of the Achieve Atlanta initiative, an effort to dramatically increase the number of Atlanta students who graduate from high school and enter as well as complete college.

“I believe that ensuring college access for students from all backgrounds is the key to education reform. Diversity in classrooms and equal opportunities for students is essential to driving students to perform well, and to ultimately giving them the knowledge and resources to reach their goals.”
