Steppingstone’s College Tour Philosophy: The goal of our college tours—both single day and overnight—is to expose and inform Scholars about college campuses and structures through an experiential learning model. Steppingstone’s objective is to bring Scholars to see schools that, based on their location, are typically inaccessible or not easily accessible for them and their families. Additionally, Steppingstone aims to structure college visits in a way that aligns with Scholars' backgrounds as FGLI (first-generation, low-income) students.

Overnight Tours to colleges such as Worcester Polytechnic Institute, College of the Holy Cross, Union College, and Colgate University.

• $388: Represents the cost to send one Scholar on a two-day, one-night overnight college tour.
• $125: Represents the cost of one hotel room for four Scholars on an overnight college tour.
• $35: Represents the cost of two meals for one Scholar on an overnight college tour.

Single-Day Tours to colleges including Amherst College and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Connecticut College, and Yale University.

• $50: Represents the cost to send one Scholar on a single day college tour (includes charter bus and snacks).

Local Tours to colleges like Boston University, Harvard University, Northeastern University, Bridgewater State University and Boston College.

• $22 represented the cost ​for one Scholar's T or Commuter Rail ticket and snack or lunch.
