SEO Scholars turns untapped potential into newfound greatness.
SEO Scholars has worked to close the achievement and opportunity gap for thousands of underserved public high school students. Our Scholars have attended and graduated from public research universities, all eight Ivy League schools, and a long list of selective private colleges, and have gone on to succeed in the workforce. SEO Scholars are creating an ecosystem of excellence.
100% of scholars are accepted into four-year colleges.
~80% of SEO Scholars are attending colleges and universities in a top-100 U.S. News & World Report ranking.
- Independent studies have shown that Scholars earn higher GPAs in their high school courses than their peers.
- Nationwide, underserved students typically score 150-300 points less on the SAT than other students do. A 2014 study of SEO Scholars showed that for the previous five years, our Black and Hispanic/Latinx Scholars outscored all national SAT test-takers.
