iMentor’s College Ready Program: Examining Implementation and Impacts for 10th Graders

The iMentor College Ready Program combines school-based mentoring with technology and aspects of whole school reform, in an effort to improve students’ college readiness. The program matches low-income youth with college-educated mentors and aims to help them develop close relationships through online communication and monthly in-person events. Mentoring takes place throughout students’ four years of high school.

In turn, iMentor hopes to leverage these relationships to help students develop the mindsets, skills, and knowledge necessary to reach and succeed in college.
