TERI's goal is to increase the chances for people from varied backgrounds to successfully complete higher education. The Higher Education Information Center promotes college access and awareness for people of all ages, especially first generation college students, by providing information, counseling and advocacy. In addition to our onsite services at the Boston Public Library in Copely Square and at our satellite offices, the Center also conducts educational awareness programs in middle and high schools and community agencies serving youth and adult populations throughout the Boston area. In addition to the generous support of TERI, the Center is supported by the U.S. Department of Education, Boston area colleges and universities, the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education, the American Student Assistance Corporation, the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission, the Boston Public Schools the Boston Public Library, the Asian-American Civic Association and other private donors.
