ETL COLLEGE TOUR

For 42 years, the ETL Education Foundation along with the Eta Theta Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has held an annual HBCU College Tour Program. Traditionally, the program consists of a series of workshops and activities leading up to a week-long tour of 12-14 Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Throughout the years, the organizations' primary concern has been the conducting of safe and academically enriching College Tour activities.

The mission of the College Tour is to expose primarily African-American and Latino high school students to the variety of higher education options offered by historically Black colleges and universities (HBCU) and through campus visitation provide opportunities for students to observe and participate in aspects of college life and interact with admissions personnel.

For 42 years, each fall, we have gathered up to 120 students to engage an educational adventure, exposing new opportunities designed to maximize our young people’s success potential. By visiting some of this nation’s best historically Black colleges and universities, during a week-long odyssey, the ETL EDUCATION FOUNDATION and the Eta Theta Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Have provided students opportunities to see and feel the majesty and significance of these institutions. The 2024 College Tour will start on October 19, 2024 and end on October 26, 2024 .
