The Baltimore Educational Scholarship Trust (B.E.S.T.) is a nonprofit organization based in Baltimore, Maryland, that collaborates with seventeen independent member schools to identify academically ambitious African American students from the local area who have financial need and are navigating the admissions process. The program pairs these students with enrollment support and, after admission, provides ongoing academic preparation, leadership development, and additional support services intended to position them for success in their chosen schools. The organization operates within the nonprofit sector focused on education access and opportunity for underserved students, leveraging partnerships with private independent schools to broaden higher-achievement pathways for its participants. B.E.S.T. is associated with a network of Baltimore-area schools including institutions such as The Boy's Latin School, The Bryn Mawr School, and McDonogh School, among others, and is located in the Baltimore region. A recent development noted is the ongoing collaboration with these member schools to recruit and support students through the admissions process and beyond.
