Educational Talent Search is a college access program sponsored by Portland State University, and funded through the U.S. Department of Education. Talent Search serves 662 students from grades 6-12 in the Portland School District. The program mission is to identify, motivate, and assist students in their educational transitions into college. We primarily work with students who come from low-income families and/or will be the first in their family to pursue post-secondary education. We encourage students to stay in school and graduate, and to enroll in a community college, a four-year university, or a vocational/technical college.
