Although the achievement gap is narrowing at the K-12 level, barriers
to college enrollment still continue to exist for many traditionally
underrepresented groups. Supported by a grant from the Lloyd G. Balfour
Foundation, Bank of America, N.A., Trustee, the Balfour Scholars Program
(BSP) is a free program for high school juniors designed to help
cultivate student academic and career development as well as minimize
misperceptions about affordability, unfamiliarity with higher education,
and difficulties with cultural adjustment that prevent students from
successfully matriculating and graduating from college.
