The Posse Foundation is an American nonprofit organization that identifies, recruits, and trains student leaders from public high schools to form multicultural teams called "Posses" of 10 to 12 Posse Scholars. These teams are then prepared, through an intensive eight-month Pre-Collegiate Training Program, for enrollment at top-tier universities nationwide to pursue their academics and to help promote cross-cultural communication on college campuses. ==Goals of the Posse Foundation== Posse has three goals designed to address some critical issues of importance to institutions of higher education in the United States today: #''To expand the pool from which top colleges and universities can recruit outstanding young leaders from diverse backgrounds.'' #''To help these institutions build more interactive campus environments so that they can become more welcoming institutions for people from all backgrounds.'' #'' To ensure that Posse Scholars persist in their academic studies and graduate so they can take on leadership positions in the workforce.''
