College Possible Omaha — Free Multi-Year College Coaching (10 Omaha High Schools)
College Possible Omaha
About This Opportunity
College Possible is a national college access organization with a strong Omaha presence — one of the most important free college coaching programs in the metro. Since 2011, College Possible Omaha has provided free, personalized college coaching to over 3,570 students. The program is embedded directly in 10 Omaha-area high schools, beginning with students in their junior year of high school. College Possible coaches help students find the right college, navigate the admissions process, secure financial aid with as little debt as possible, and stay enrolled and on track through degree completion — providing 6+ years of support from junior year of high school through college graduation. The program serves students from low-income backgrounds at no cost whatsoever — no fees, no applications costs, no strings attached. Students who are eligible for Dell Scholars or other college access scholarships may gain additional resources through College Possible's national partnerships. The 10 Omaha-area high schools served are: Bellevue East, Benson, Central, Millard South, North, Northwest Magnet, Papillion-La Vista, Ralston, South Magnet, and Westview. Students at these schools should ask their school counselor how to connect with their College Possible coach. College Possible students are 30% more likely to enroll in college after high school and 3x more likely to earn a bachelor's degree than peers from similar backgrounds.
