Over the summer of 2001 the program
conducted an Annual Alumni Survey to assess the progress of its graduates. Here are some of the highlights from our survey.

• Since the program's inception in 1983, all of the Urban Scholars seniors have been accepted to at least two four-year colleges: 96% of these students have enrolled in college; 86% have either graduated or are still in school.
   
• 11% of the students who have completed their undergraduate work, are now pursuing, or have completed Master's Degrees.
   
• One student received a Master's in Fine Arts in creative writing from Brown University. Her first novel was published in the fall of 1993; her second novel was published in November 1994; her third was published in the fall of 1997.
   
• One student has completed medical school, another received his Master's in Urban Planning from MIT, and another received her Master's in Psychology from Boston College.
   
• Two students have Master's in Nursing, one from Syracuse University and the other from the University of Vermont.
