The Detroit Promise Path
The Detroit Promise Path is a student success program that assigns a Campus Coach, as of Fall 2019, to all Detroit Promise community college students. Campus Coaches connect students with on-campus student resources, support their educational journey and personal growth, and assist them in achieving goals. Please note that while participation in the Detroit Promise Path is highly encouraged to support student success, not participating will not impact the student’s eligibility for Detroit Promise funding.
In addition to the benefit of having a dedicated, knowledgeable coach, each scholar participating in the Detroit Promise Path will receive a monthly stipend of $50 and be connected to a community of Detroit Promise scholars.
To remain eligible for Detroit Promise Path participation, students must:
- Maintain SAP (2.0 overall GPA and completion of 2/3 of enrolled classes).
- Meet with coach twice monthly.
- Maintain open, responsive communication with the coach.
- Complete the FAFSA each year.
