The mission of the Office of Early Academic Outreach (EAO) at the University of Arizona is to increase the number of college-bound students who aspire to attend and are eligible to enroll in a university-degree program.
EAO has worked to develop a Theory of Change, for the office's strategic efforts to increase college access to a four-year degree for students in the State of Arizona. In particular, five strategies for change are identified that can help students to aspire, plan, and eventually apply to college. These strategies include:
Inspire Students | Engage Parents | Partner with K-12 | Foster Academic and Career Aspirations | Develop College-Bound Peer Groups (students & parents)
From Dreams to College Plans
