The College Access program is intended to provide equitable access for high school seniors who wish to pursue higher education. We provide a comprehensive framework for access and recruitment of seniors in Tarrant County.

Overview of all sessions conducted at the high school:
TCC 101 - deliver information during either English or Government classes regarding general information about TCC and they can opt-in. Students complete an interest card/form and become part of the cohort group that will complete the steps below to get them to enrollment.

Admissions Application - provide step-by-step assistance with completing the TCC admissions application.

Pre-Assessment Activity (PAA) – administer the State-required activity for students who need to take the TSI Assessment which provides students with instruction on how to prepare for the test.

TSI Assessment (administered at one of the TCC Campuses or at the high school) – coordinate with testing center staff to offer an opportunity for students to complete the assessment in the areas of Math, Reading, and Writing, as needed. Students get to test for free.

Financial Aid Assistance – Coordinate presentation with Financial Aid staff to go out to the high schools and inform students about financial aid and scholarship information to include completion of FAFSA/TASFA.

Case-Management/- Interpret TSI Assessment scores and support students throughout their senior year with on-going general advisement and parent information sessions.

Parent Nights (conducted at TCC campus) – Parents are invited to attend an information session and find out the status of their student and what they have completed and what they still lack.

Summer follow-up – continue to communicate with students via post-cards, phone, chat, text, in-person to remind them to complete any of the steps they need in order to register (meningitis, re-test, transcripts, orientation, see an advisor, etc.).

DELIVERY FORMAT: The program has a hybrid format or has both online and in-person components.

PROGRAM SCALE: Large-scale (reaches more than 25 percent of its intended target population)

PROGRAM OUTCOMES: Historically students who participate in our program have had higher success rates compared to the general FTIC population.

Collin College Consortium - Operation Degree Completion
Read the Fine Print
Some Rights Reserved
Rating
0.0 stars

Today’s college attendees are more mobile than any time in history. They have many choices to complete a credential of value, and college hopping is commonplace. Unfortunately, this results in situations where students have completed almost all their requirements but left without a credential. The population of “almost grads” is growing, creating a dearth of qualified employees in the workforce. Through ODC, three North Texas higher education institutions actively engaged with “almost grads” to provide them the assistance they needed to complete a credential of value. ODC began by extracting students within 15 credit hours of credential completion. Accelerating Student Success funds encouraged students to enroll when they faced barriers such as not enough time to complete a FAFSA, having excessive hour fees, or a small financial incentive to re-enroll. ODC helped cover the remaining credits to graduation without any further roadblocks…just a carrot to convince students to complete their graduation goals.

DELIVERY FORMAT: The program has a hybrid format or has both online and in-person components.

PROGRAM SCALE: Small-scale (reaches fewer than 10 percent of its target population)

PROGRAM OUTCOMES: 331 students have been awarded scholarships to complete their degree. We are still finalizing numbers and some are enrolled in fall 2023, but we anticipate a very high percentage will graduate specifically due to this program.

It focuses on transforming student learning in and beyond the instructional space, employing relevant technology to facilitate engaging, inclusive, and accessible student-centered teaching across all modalities. Institute participants share their experiences and build on their expertise through practice, self-reflection, discussion, and redesign.

The Engaged Learning Institute frontloads a contextual framework focused on three core lenses:

ENGAGEMENT is the broad lens through which ELI focuses content to encourage faculty to think about how to intentionally create environments and facilitate opportunities that help students to become world-ready, emphasizing Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) core skills. The ELI is centered on four dimensions of engaged learning suggested by the Associate of American Colleges & Universities (AAC&U): classroom, multidisciplinary and contextual, civic and social, and technological and experiential. Engaged learning strategies center students as active participants in their own learning, maintaining essential focus on learners so that they may take ownership of their learning processes.

UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR LEARNING serves ELI faculty as a framework grounded in neuroscience to advance consideration of ways to intentionally build in multiple means of content representation, skill demonstration, and overall engagement throughout course curriculum and delivery to ensure activation of brain networks essential to student learning.
