Program Overview
Act Six is a leadership and scholarship program that recruits and selects students primarily from marginalized communities (BIPOC, immigrant, English learners) and provides leadership training and preparation, support and inspiration, and funds their entire four-year college education.
Students who want to make a difference in their campus and communities are recruited from across the region and chosen to join a multicultural cadre of students at an affiliate university.
Once selected, Act Six scholars participate in intensive training with their cadre, equipping them to support each other, succeed academically and grow as service-minded leaders and agents of transformation.
