ETS Membership Application

Educational Talent Search (ETS) is a free college-bound program designed to support students in grades 6 through 12 as they work toward high school graduation and pursue post-secondary education. ETS offers year-round programming, allowing participants to engage in activities until they enroll in a college program. As a federally funded TRIO program, ETS requires that at least two-thirds of its participants meet federal guidelines for being low-income and/or potential first-generation college students (meaning neither parent has earned a four-year college degree).
