Unconquered Scholars
Our Unconquered Scholars have faced profound hardships during childhood that may increase their risk of leaving academia without a degree. In fact, research indicates former foster youth are far less likely to earn a degree than their non-foster care peers. Unconquered Scholars, housed within the Center for Academic Retention and Enhancement (CARE), provides an array of support services promoting overall success to youth who experienced foster care, homelessness, relative care, or ward of the State status.
At FSU, these students graduate at a the same rate as their peers, while elsewhere they graduate at a rate of 2-3%. Your donations provide the structural support these students need to focus on their studies and build a meaningful network on campus that supports them throughout their academic career and beyond.
Their resilience and perseverance are in the name - they are our Unconquered Scholars.
