ISAC Launches Illinois Student Assistance Corps

For over fifty years, ISAC has worked with our partners in education to make college accessible and affordable for Illinois students. In that spirit of collaboration, ISAC is pleased to announce our latest college access and outreach initiative to benefit the entire state – the ISACorps.   
 
Starting this fall, nearly 60 near-peer mentors will be assigned across the state to bolster ISAC's services to help students and families understand the college going process. With the Corps members recruited from the undergraduate class of 2009, their insights on the challenges of going to and paying for college will be very valuable in guiding students on the path to college.
 
The overview and contact document provides additional information on the ISACorps and why its mission is so vital to creating greater access to higher education in Illinois. It also includes contact information for the ISACorps member located in your community. If you want to learn more about the ISACorps or opportunities for collaboration, please e-mail us at Corps@isac.org.
