Empowering Students to Succeed

The National College Advising Corps (NCAC) seeks to bring talented, enthusiastic advisers to every community that wants them and to every student who needs them.

Through a nationwide consortium of colleges and universities, the corps aims to increase the number of low-income, first-generation, and underrepresented students entering and completing higher education. By placing recent graduates of partner institutions as college advisers in low-income high schools and community colleges, our programs work in communities across the country to provide the advising and encouragement that students need to navigate college admissions.
