Dorinda Harmon, director of transfer and adult student admission at the College of Charleston, said the Keystone program is for students who are among the first generation in their families to attend college; from lower-income families; or from a minority group. The program helps students to get familiar with the college and its services before they enroll, she said. And they develop connections with college staffers and other Keystone participants so they have a support network in place before they arrive on campus.
