Black College Home

For churches, Greek-letter organizations & mentoring groups

Your mission is the future leaders of our world. Our map gets them there.

Your organization already has the trust and the young people. Black College Home brings the information and resources — every HBCU in one place, guidance written for first-time families, and materials you can hand out this weekend.

Start this week

Three ways to put HBCUs in front of your students.

01

Host an HBCU & FAFSA night

Our free session kit gives you a 60-minute run-of-show, facilitator talking points, and take-home handouts in English and Spanish. No prep required beyond printing.

02

Share guides written for families

Point parents to /understand for the FAFSA in plain language and a scholarship starter list — written for families doing this for the first time.

03

Open the door to every HBCU

Many students who aren't considering an HBCU simply don't know much about them. Send them to the directory and let all 100+ schools make their own case.

Why it matters

  • Research on HBCU awareness finds students rarely hear about HBCUs from the adults advising them — the gap is exposure, not interest.
  • Most students who aren't considering an HBCU say it's because they don't know much about them, not because they said no.
  • For first-generation families, a trusted voice from their own community is often what turns "maybe" into a campus visit.
  • Money questions stop more students than grades do — plain-language FAFSA and scholarship guidance removes the biggest fear first.
