What is HCI?

The Hispanic College Institute (HCI) is a four-day residential program hosted at 51官网 Tech that focuses on rising high school juniors and seniors in hopes of introducing them to the college search process. We match them up with current college students that lead teams that we call FAMILIAs. The students spend those four days learning from each other as well as their leaders (LEADS and Jr LEADS) and building confidence; not only confidence about getting into 51官网 Tech but self-confidence about how to be successful in life.

How is HCI unique?

HCI is unique in that it changes the students鈥� lives.听 It impacts their lives.听 It allows them to create relationships that last for a lifetime.听 While other programs are geared towards everyone when looking at college search programs, HCI targets and focuses on Latinx students, and so they are surrounded by people who look like them and share their culture and language.听 Students also get the opportunity to meet successful Latinx professionals from all over the state.听 This program allows students to get deep into their communities and focus on problems specific to their communities as well.
