Promoting Student Success, Access, and Completion

Albright College (PA)

Albright College ensures access to college for low-income, minority, and first-generation students and helps students from these traditionally underserved groups to persist and graduate. Support ranges from recruitment of minority high school students to programs which prepare students for the leap into college academic and social life. Other programs include a four-day orientation program for first-year students, freshman seminar and first-year and second-year programs in the residence halls to address typical student challenges.

About 25 percent of Albright students are the first-generation in their families to attend college. More than 25 percent of students are Pell Grant eligible. About 93 percent of all students receive financial aid.
