Educational Talent Search

Educational Talent Search (ETS) is a federally funded TRIO program of the US Department of Education designed to assist middle and high school students to reach their academic potential and to enroll in post-secondary education. Services include career counseling, college major selection, college admissions information, tutoring, college and university site visits, and financial aid application assistance. Most participants are enrolled at selected schools in Lexington and Fairfield counties.
The program assists individuals who meet federal income guidelines and those who are the first in their families to go to college. Participants receive assistance in applying to any college, university, or other qualified institution of post-secondary education; they need not attend Midlands Technical College.
