What is Educational Talent Search?

FRC’s Educational Talent Search program provides 6th-12th grade students with valuable experiences that will assist them in understanding the value and processes involved in furthering their education. ETS promotes education and provides services that qualified students might need to complete high school (or re-enter) and continue their education in a college program.

How much does it cost?

Participation in ETS is free. All programs, field trips, and support services are provided by college grant funding and community support.

What services are available?

You may be eligible for free services such as:
  • Tutoring
  • Academic and career counseling
  • College preparation including re-entry programs for those whom have not completed high school.
  • Mentoring
  • Assistance in preparing for college entrance exams

  • Assistance with college admissions and financial aid
  • Field trips to colleges and universities.
