College Access Now
College Access Now (CAN) is a non-profit organization based in Seattle. Its mission is to empower students from low-income families to access, enroll, and graduate from college at rates equal to their more advantaged peers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.collegeaccessnow.org/why/mission )〕 94% of CAN’s students are the first in their families to pursue a college degree.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.collegeaccessnow.org/what )〕
==History and Mission==
CAN was founded in 2005 and initially served 29 high school students at Garfield High School.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.collegeaccessnow.org/about )〕 The organization has expanded to serve high school juniors and seniors at six high schools in Seattle, and now also provides support to its students through college graduation. CAN now serves 960 students: 560 high school students and 400 high school graduates and college students.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.collegeaccessnow.org/what )〕
Low-income, first-generation students face many barriers to college admission and graduation.〔Moving Beyond Access: College Success for Low-Income, First-Generation Students. The Pell Institute, 2008.〕 Nationally, low-income, first-generation students are nearly four times more likely to leave college after their first year than students who have neither of these risk factors, and enroll in college at a rate of only 52% (compared to 82% of high-income high school graduates).〔Moving Beyond Access: College Success for Low-Income, First-Generation Students.
