Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM'S (DC CAP'S) PRIMARY PURPOSE IS TO ENCOURAGE AND ENABLE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA STUDENTS TO ATTEND AND GRADUATE COLLEGE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO ENCOURAGE AND ENABLE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA STUDENTS TO ATTEND AND GRADUATE FROM COLLEGE.

  • DC CAP MAINTAINS ONE MAIN INITIATIVE STUDENT SUCCESS, WHICH PROVIDES SCHOLARS WITH INCREASED FINANCIAL SUPPORT FROM DC CAP. IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS PROGRAM, DC CAP PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT FOR A PIPELINE OF "SCHOLARS," THE MAJORITY OF WHOM ENROLL AT ONE OF DC CAP'S "UNIVERSITY PARTNER INSTITUTIONS." THIS STRATEGY WAS DESIGNED TO PAIR FEDERAL, PRIVATE, AND INSTITUTIONAL GIFT AID WITH HIGH-IMPACT, COLLABORATIVE COACHING FROM DC CAP AND UNIVERSITY STAFF. STUDENT SUCCESS COACHES PROVIDE ACADEMIC, FINANCIAL AID, SOCIAL, AND LOGISTICAL SUPPORT WITHIN A COHORT-BASED SCHOLAR COMMUNITY. THIS SUPPORT LEADS TO AN INCREASE IN COLLEGE PERSISTENCE AND GRADUATION RATES FOR DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA STUDENTS. DC CAP'S FLAGSHIP PROGRAM, THE DC CAP UNIVERSITY PARTNERSHIP SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM, WAS ENACTED THROUGH COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENTS WITH 14 HIGH-PERFORMING, FOUR-YEAR INSTITUTIONS THAT ARE COMMITTED TO INCREASING ENROLLMENT AND GRADUATION RATES FOR D.C. STUDENTS. PARTNER INSTITUTIONS MUST DEMONSTRATE HIGH COMPLETION RATES FOR LOW-INCOME (PELL GRANT RECIPIENT) STUDENTS AND OFFER COMPREHENSIVE SUPPORT SERVICES FOR LOW-INCOME AND FIRST-GENERATION STUDENTS. PARTNERSHIP INSTITUTIONS COLLABORATE CLOSELY WITH DC CAP TO RECRUIT AND SELECT A COHORT OF STUDENTS ANNUALLY, PROVIDE YEAR-ROUND HIGH INTENSITY RETENTION SUPPORT SERVICES AND TRACKING, AND AWARD SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL AID PACKAGES TO ENSURE THAT D.C. STUDENTS CAN EARN THEIR DEGREES. DC CAP UNIVERSITY PARTNERSHIP SCHOLARS ARE SELECTED AS GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS AND RECEIVE RENEWABLE SUPPORT FROM DC CAP FOR UP TO FIVE YEARS. SCHOLARSHIP AMOUNTS VARY BASED ON THE INSTITUTION AND RANGE FROM $5,000 TO $7,500 ANNUALLY PER SCHOLAR.

    Expenses $7,217,461 · Grants $5,275,079

  • DC CAP AWARDS "NAMED" SCHOLARSHIPS BASED ON DONOR GIVING AND AGREED UPON STUDENT ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. ADDITIONALLY, DC CAP MANAGES THE WARD 7&8 SCHOLARS PROGRAM AND THE GEAR UP PROGRAM. WARD 7&8 PROVIDES SCHOLARSHIP FUNDING AND STUDENT SUCCESS COACHING TO INCREASE RETENTION AND GRADUATION RATES AMONG DC CAP SCHOLARS FROM D.C.'S WARD 7&8 HIGH SCHOOLS. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES HIGHLY INTENSIVE SUPPORT SERVICES THROUGH COLLEGE, AS WELL AS ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIPS FOR UP TO FIVE YEARS PER SCHOLAR ($12,000, PER SCHOLAR, PER YEAR). GEAR UP IS A FEDERALLY FUNDED COLLEGE-READINESS PROGRAM POWERED BY DC CAP THAT HELPS DC STUDENTS PREPARE FOR POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION STARTING AS EARLY AS MIDDLE SCHOOL. THROUGH SCHOOL-BASED COACHES, CAMPUS EXPERIENCES, MENTORING, AND HANDS-ON SUPPORT, GEAR UP BUILDS THE ACADEMIC AND PERSONAL SKILLS STUDENTS NEED TO SUCCEED IN POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
