HT has educated first generation students who are often faced with a myriad of challenges. These students may find the quality and quantity of college courses to be rigorous and demanding.

True to its roots, Huston-Tillotson embraces the responsibility of intellectually challenging well-prepared students while offering those who may need support an opportunity to reach their full potential,” said HT President Larry L.
