Did you know nine out of ten low income students in Texas drop out of college? ScholarShot has reversed this statistic by helping 90% of our Scholars remain on track to graduate through personalized academic management and financial assistance. Although our model has continued to support Scholars toward degree completion, mentors are crucial to building a network of personal and professional resources for them.
