La  Salle University joins nearly 140 higher education institutions across the United States as a member of the Coalition for Access, Affordability, and Success, an organization dedicated to making college a reality for all students through improving the application process. The Coalition provides a centralized platform for high-schoolers to develop robust online portfolios as early as the ninth grade; interact with college counselors, teachers, and mentors; and submit applications to their chosen colleges and universities.

“The Coalition’s goals are beautifully aligned with the mission of La Salle University, where we strive to reach a diverse community of learners,” said James Plunkett, Executive Director of Admissions. “The Coalition’s cloud-based digital locker enables students to have a full library of supporting materials to share with the colleges of their choosing, giving them confidence in their applications. This early engagement is a game changer in the admissions world, as it creates a college- going culture as early as the freshman year in high school.”
