Ypie continued to award full scholarships for this professional sat test prep program that enables low income students to attend a course to prepare them for the sat exams. Additionally, a new program of one-on one tutoring was implemented over the summer. This six-week program paired volunteer college students who excelled in sat testing with individual high school students. The program was successful in helping high school students increase their test scores, making them more competitive in the college application process.
