ABOUT CAP:
College Access Plan (CAP) is a student-centered support system that fosters meaningful interactions to assist students and their families through any and all college readiness and success steps. Supporting any student who opts into our services as they navigate the journey from middle school through college graduation, CAP believes that college should be accessible to everyone regardless of academic achievement, citizenship status, or income level.

WHAT WE DO:
Thanks to your investment and collaboration with caring educators and partners, CAP will provide more college access and success support to first-generation college-goers and their families than ever before, serving an estimated 3,000 students and family members with college applications, financial aid, and other forms of essential college preparatory and success support.

Since 2006, our programs have partnered with the Pasadena Unified School District to support students, graduates, and families with no-cost, essential financial aid and holistic college admissions knowledge. In 2022, we expanded services to the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District.
