C.R.O.P.

College Reach Out Program (C.R.O.P.)

Since 1999, Florida Department of Education has supported Barry University’s College Reach- Out Program (C.R.O.P.) through funded grant awards. The primary objective of CROP is to provide academic and psychosocial supportive services to low-income, educationally disadvantaged students in grades 6 through 12 that motivates and prepares them to attend college and complete their postsecondary education.

Barry University’s CARE Center recognizes that individual, familial, school, community, and peer factors have a great impact on a student’s development, whether, academic, personal, and career. As a result, Barry-C.R.O.P. is the only program of its kind in the state of Florida to offer therapeutic counseling services to its participants and family members in addition to other academic and supportive services. Our goal is to eliminate barriers to school achievement and facilitate academic and personal success.
