The Puente Program was historically designed to increase the number Latino students who enroll in four-year colleges and universities, earn college degrees and return to the community as mentors and  leaders to future generations. The Puente program model consists of three interrelated components: writing, counseling and mentoring. This approach provides a focused, sustained, and engaging learning environment for students.

Puente invites all students who seek to complete English 88 and English 1A at ÃÈ·­µ¼º½ to apply for our yearlong instruction and practice in expository writing focusing around the Latino experience. Enrollment is open to all eligible students.
