Educational Talent Search

This program identifies and assists individuals who have the potential
to succeed in higher education. The program provides academic,
career, and financial counseling to its participants, and encourages
them to graduate from high school and continue on to the
postsecondary institution of their choice. ETS is one of eight Federal
TRiO Programs funded by the US Department of Education. Some ETS
Programs serve high school dropouts by encouraging them to reenter
the education system and complete their education. The goal of Talent
Search is to increase the number of youths who complete high school
and enroll in postsecondary education institutions of their choice.
