PATH Advising Program - Boston University

PATH Advising Program (formerly College Advising Corps-Boston University "CAC-BU") seeks to increase the number of low-income, first generation, and underrepresented students entering and completing college. PATH Advising Program (formerly College Advising Corps – Boston University) works to increase the number of first-generation college going, low-income and/or underrepresented students who apply, enter, and compete college. To accomplish this mission, we place recent college graduates from a partner university as full-time college advisers in Greater Boston’s underserved high schools. Additionally, high-need students often lack the guidance and support they need to prepare for and apply to college. PATH works in public high schools to provide the support needed to low-income and underrepresented students to navigate the post-secondary admissions process. In 2013, with the help of the Greenlight Fund, PATH was brought to Boston. PATH was thrilled to partner with Boston University in the summer of 2015. PATH currently has 23 advisers serving in 28 high schools across Boston, Malden and Somerville.
