College Access and Career Preparation

Through campus-wide partnerships, Northwestern University is committed to addressing the opportunity gap with regards to college access and career preparation. In close partnership with ETHS’ College and Career Services Office, the Northwestern Partnership Office leverages relationships and resources to increase awareness of and access to post-secondary options for all ETHS students.

As a first generation-college student myself, I understand the value of these programs for ETHS students and for NU first-gen students who are role models for our youth.”
