2016 in Review

Thank you for making 2016 TEAK’s most impactful year ever!

Your support made an immediate impact on TEAK’s programs:

Last spring we increased our newest cohort of students by 10%, after seeing a 41% increase in overall applications. The increase was due to our expanded outreach, new partnerships with local community organizations, and an overall increase in demand for educational access programs.

We celebrated 100% of our high school seniors gaining acceptance to highly competitive colleges and universities (according to Barron’s Profile of American Colleges), earning 92% of tuition costs covered by financial awards. These outcomes are not surprising for our Class 17 Fellows who had an average SAT score of 2030.

100% of our 8th graders started high school last fall at selective day and boarding schools, collectively earning $5.5M in financial awards.

TEAK College Scholars cumulatively spent almost 10,000 hours last summer working in various professional fields, gaining exposure to numerous career paths and building skills in their areas of interest.

92% of the Class of 2016 graduated from college in 2016 ready to conquer the world!
