TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL TUTORING, STANDARDIZED TEST PREPARATION AND ACADEMIC COUNSELING TO LOW-INCOME STUDENTS, TO IMPROVE THEIR ACCESS TO INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING SUCH AS COLLEGES AND LAW SCHOOLS.

HARVARD LAW SCHOOL AND THE NYU SCHOOL OF LAW PARTNER WITH THE ADVANTAGE TESTING FOUNDATION TO SUPPORT THE PROGRAM.
