Why We Serve

We are a six year program dedicated to helping ETHS students succeed during high school and through college graduation.

DID YOU KNOW?

• A graduate of a four year college will make almost $1.2Million more than a high school graduate over a lifetime.
• Roughly 50% of students will drop out of college, and 75% of those leave within their first two years.
• A recent national study stated that only 34% of low-income students attend college compared to 83% of students from high-income families.
• 50% of students from high-income families complete college by the age of 25, whereas only 10% of students from low-income families complete college by the age of 25.

Some studies suggest that many students drop out of college because they don't find a "good fit" college and are not fully informed about their choices.

Many studies cite that college preparatory guidance is a key factor to increase enrollment in college for low-income students.

Evanston Scholars gives fundamental college advising proven to help students accomplish their academic goals.
