Overview of our mission and target schools

The mission of the Educational Talent Search is to identify qualified youths with potential for education at the postsecondary level and encourage them to complete secondary school and undertake a program of postsecondary education; publicize the availability of student financial assistance for persons who seek to pursue postsecondary education; and encourage persons who have not completed education programs at the secondary or postsecondary level, but who have the ability to do so, to re-enter these programs.
