Transitioning to college can be an exciting and overwhelming process for many students. Success Boston works to ensure that Boston Public Schools students have the support they need to get ready, get in and succeed at area colleges.
The Boston Public Schools (BPS) is working to ensure that BPS students are academically prepared to succeed in college, by expanding the number of AP courses and dual enrollment opportunities available, among other activities.

Beginning with the Class of 2009, Success Boston coaches are providing participants with ongoing individual and group support in the following areas:
Boston area colleges and universities are working together to ensure that BPS alumni have the resources and supports - academic and nonacademic - they need to successfully complete a degree.
The Boston Private Industry Council leads Success Boston’s work to engage employers in college completion efforts with summer jobs, internships, career advising, and other opportunities that will expose students to employment pathways and new career fields.
