[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is from an article in The Zebra, "On Oct. 3, during the celebratory launch, 428 students found out they would be the program’s first cohort. Students who receive an invitation to apply do not pay any application fee and do not have to take any tests to apply. In fact, upon selection, they receive a link to the application by email, which is already 75% complete. “The pilot program,” according to ACPS, “aims to address the declining number of underrepresented students applying to college. Direct admissions programs are considered to be effective in increasing enrollment in institutions of higher education and postsecondary degree attainment, especially among students from underrepresented communities.”[/quote] It is still for all ACPS students…I assume they have way more URMs then other school districts so it will benefit those kids the most, but anyone can take advantage.[/quote]
