What are some of College Bound’s accomplishments?
Since 1990, we have achieved key accomplishments: • Each year, College Bound consistently places from 95% – 100% of our students into four-year institutions of higher education. • 100% of our high school graduates complete the necessary UC/CSU A-G subject requirements for admission to college; as compared to 32.4% of African American students in Los Angeles County, 24.1% in Riverside County, and 23.1% in San Bernardino County (California Department of Education, 2006-07 Graduation Data). • Over 80% of all College Bound graduates have obtained or are scheduled to complete their undergraduate degrees within 4-6 years, nearly twice the national rate for African American college students. • Over 60% of all College Bound graduates pursue majors in math, science, and business related fields, where African Americans and other minorities are particularly underrepresented.
