This grant is designed to support eligible institutions in planning, developing, undertaking, and implementing programs that enhance their capacity to serve a greater number of low- and middle-income Black American students. A core purpose is to expand higher education opportunities by encouraging comprehensive college preparation and fostering student persistence throughout both secondary and postsecondary education. Additionally, the program endeavors to strengthen the financial ability of these institutions, ensuring they can effectively meet the academic needs of their students. This initiative is vital for promoting educational access and success at Predominantly Black Institutions.
