One of the ways community college students find help to succeed is through the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation’s Community College Transfer Initiative. It provides more than a thousand exceptional low- to moderate-income community-college students across the country with the opportunity to attend the nation’s most selective four-year institutions. The program partners with eight highly-selective colleges and universities, as well as dozens of community colleges across the country.http://www.jkcf.org/grants/community-college-transfer/
