Add or Update Program Data

Pathways to College Network has partnered with National College Access Network to create the National College Access Program Directory. This directory is a free online tool for students, parents, counselors, researchers, and all others that operate college access programs.

Programs in the National College Access Program Directory must meet certain criteria, they must:

  1. Provide potential students with college access services beyond the listing and/or award of scholarships, grants or loans;
  2. Provide students with advice about postsecondary admissions, financial aid, careers, etc.;
  3. Serve more than 50 students each year;
  4. Provide services on an ongoing basis (more than one or two days per year);
  5. Offer services beyond those that are web-based;
  6. Offer information about more than one institution of postsecondary education;
  7. Provide basic services at no charge (nominal fees may be charged for such things as field trips, books and event tickets);
  8. Have an annual budget of at least $50,000, and
  9. Be classified by the Internal Revenue Service as exempt from taxes because the organization is a non-profit organization or a public entity.

Whether you are creating a new profile, or updating an already submitted one, the user manual (general or NCAN Member) will assist in guiding you through the National College Access Program Directory. If you require assistance, please feel free to contact the National College Access Networks Technology Coordinator, Betty Ivory at ivoryb@collegeaccess.org, or by phone toll free 1-866-941-6122 x 204.
