College Preparation Services

Seeking to increase the college admission, retention, and graduation rates of first-generation college freshmen and to assist parents and school districts with the admissions and financial aid process, BLU Educational Services offers both its highly acclaimed College Prep Camps and the College Exodus Project.

College Exodus Project

 A comprehensive, year-round program that can be implemented in any school or district, the College Exodus Project (CEP) is an institutional model specifically created to increase college matriculation rates. The program targets students who are low income and/or the first of their family to attend post-secondary education. Bridging K-12 schools, colleges, community, family, and faith-based organizations, CEP uses state of the art technology, information, and committed leadership to achieve its goals. The program was recently recognized as a pilot program for the Inland Empire P-16 Council, an association of the major K-12 and higher education institutions in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties.

In addition to our College Prep Camps, BLU Educational Services also conducts College Awareness Workshops focusing on admissions and financial aid for schools, churches, and community organizations.

Program Development and Management

In addition to our specialized programming, BLU Educational Services also prides itself on our ability to create, manage, and evaluate site-specific curriculums, workshops, educator in-services, and conferences for a variety of institutions and organizations.
