Yates Fellowship Program
The Yates Fellowship program is a unique program offered for first-generation college students. The 10-day program begins online for the first five days and in-person the next five days prior to the start of the academic year. Yates fellows will work closely with Illinois College faculty and staff members strengthening skills in reading, writing and statistics, while improving organization and study skills to ease and prepare students for the transition from high school to college.
Students will work closely with the Yates Fellowship mentors, faculty and their academic advisor throughout the entire academic year. There is no cost to participate in this program.
