MITES - College Matriculation

College Matriculation

Of 1,765 MITES alumni who have taken part in the program over the past 33 years, 34 percent (over 600 students) have matriculated to MIT. Those MITES students who attend MIT are consistently strong performers. Since its inception, the graduation rate of MITES alumni at MIT is as much as 12 percentage points higher than that of minority students who did not have the privilege of attending MITES. A recent analysis found MITES students graduated with grade point averages comparable to the majority population.

• Of the 62 students who attended MITES 2006, 29 (47% of the class) enrolled at MIT in the fall of 2007. Other highly-ranked universities welcomed MITES alumni: Stanford (7), Princeton (5), Harvard (5), Columbia (2), and Yale (1).
