COLLEGE COACHING

The Indiana Latino Institute (ILI) works with high school and college students across Indiana to assess student and family needs, address barriers, and identify and focus on strengths.

High School Students

ILI helps high school students navigate the college application process, financial aid, and career exploration and provides referrals to general social service agencies for other needs.

College Students

Once students enroll in college, ILI remains a resource through higher education by helping current college students navigate the college processes, financial aid, career exploration, internships, and mentorships and provides referrals to general social service agencies for other needs.
