EST has been a such a blessing to my son and I. College is more competitive than ever and with so many changes in the landscape over the past year due to the pandemic, coupled with the changes since I applied for college many years ago, I am so very grateful for this program and the access to valuable information and opportunity that it has afforded my child and I. Dr. D is amazing and truly has a calling for what she does. She invests so much in the children in the program and truly wants to see them succeed and have the best opportunity to get into college without the weight of student loans hovering over them once they complete their education. This is truly a great program and I am so thankful for it!
This is an amazing non profit that has helped my son with ACT/SAT Prep. Staying on target with college applications and deadlines. EST provided mentors to assist with guidance and support during the college application and scholarship process. I highly recommend EST!
EST was such a blessing to my son and I in the college process. From SAT/ACT preparation, the college application process, essay writing and overall support with every aspect of preparing to send my child to college, EST was a Godsend! Dr. D was an amazing resource and support system, and all of the mentors, guest speakers, and college counselors that were made available to students in the program were priceless assets in this process. I can honestly say that I don't know how we would have been able to successfully navigate this process without all of their support. We were so blessed to be able to be a part of this program and have their guidance on this journey. I will forever be grateful!
I am a grandmother of two HBCU students. One graduate and another continuing her second year. It is an awesome organization that has been and instrumental tool with hands on guidance to many of our youth along with parents that are not familiar with the resources available to them. In order to fulfill many of our youth the opportunity to further their education, we strongly need and encourage organizations such as this in the black community. This will continue to aide them in their growth in striving for their educational dreams. Never giving up as long as they know there are others in the background supporting their efforts.
This awesome organization has provided a wealth of resources and support for two of my nieces as well as friends of the family. The organization is an asset to the community because it creates opportunity for educational advancement and offers guidance in areas where most people have little to no knowledge about college funding through grants/stipends/scholarships/tutoring/children of veterans and the list goes on. Resources like these are needed and must remain in the black community.
A great nonprofit that supports the mission of uplifting and guiding the community of minorities towards obtaining a college degree.
The Educational Student Tours Inc have been very instrumental in educated and guiding our family through the process of higher education. It feels good to have someone on your side to help during unfamiliar times and places in life. We met the Directors three years ago by chance and have felt empowered and rewarded ever since. Their program helped our daughter through high school testing resources and exposed her to an incredibly life changing college tour experience that she would not have otherwise been able to participate in without their help. They and presently working diligently to guide her in the pursuit of Bachelors degree in education at Xavier University of Louisiana (XULA). We attribute much of her academic progress thus far to the commitment of Educational Student Tours Inc of Los Angeles and the tireless efforts they pour into youth who are in need. THANK YOU EST and may your programs long live to help millions...!
As my son began the difficult task of exploring institutions of higher learning during his junior year, Educational Student Tours provided him with the unique opportunity to visit historically Black colleges. The experience was one that he will never forget as it afforded him the opportunity to visit many campuses, talk to enrolled students about their experiences, meet and dialogue with campus professionals, and explore educational programs that he may not have otherwise heard about. He came home with renewed resolve to find and attend a university to further his education and set him on the path to success. Educational Student Tours also provided mentoring regarding needed high school coursework, volunteerism, the college application process, standardized testing, and finding scholarships. Thanks to Educational Student Tours, my son has completed his freshman year and is firmly on the pathway to future success.
