Since 1988, ACCESS has assisted nearly 60,000 local public high school students with enrolling in college, and has secured over $565 million in scholarships and financial aid for these students. The Foundation has awarded $9 million in ACCESS Last-Dollar Scholarships, bridging the gap between the amount of financial aid received by a family and the final cost of attending college. 2
