Inspiring students to achieve a higher education by promoting a college-going and career-focused culture through educational activities, services and community partnerships. Guided by our mission, we plan to continue serving a larger and more diverse population of students and parents each year in the greater Arlington community. Presentations and Workshops:
We currently offer two main presentatio
ns. Our inspirED College Prep presentation is designed to encourage students and families to be college ready and to provide detailed guidance on such things as admissions, testing, scholarships and the intricacies of applying for financial aid. Our inspirED FAFSA Prep presentation and workshop were created to assist students and parents with filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). GO Centers:
Our GO Centers are college and career centers located within high schools and public libraries which focus on creating a college-going culture and promote college awareness and accessibility. The GO Centers are supported by inspirED college mentors who provide postsecondary planning and process assistance to students and their families. We currently support 19 GO Centers in Southeast Tarrant County. Destination Success/College & Career Expo:
Each spring, inspirED partners with the Arlington Independent School District (AISD), Mansfield Independent School District (MISD) and other sponsors to host free events for high school students and their families that provide sessions in English and Spanish on preparing for college, understanding college costs and financial aid, college and financial aid application completion assistance, tax preparation assistance, financial literacy presentations, SAT/ACT prep courses, a college and career fair and much more.
