The College, Career, & Financial Health (CCFH) outreach program was created to encourage and assist with postsecondary enrollment for elementary through secondary school students in Victoria College’s service area. The CCFH Coordinator is responsible for facilitating a pipeline to postsecondary enrollment from a very early age.Through various financial literacy sessions, students are able to explore career and college opportunities, as well as identify smart financial habits and options for future goals. Specifically, at the high school level, the CCFH Coordinator works diligently to increase the percent of service area secondary students who complete the ApplyTexas application, submit their FAFSA, and complete at least one scholarship application before high school graduation.

The aims of this project are to implement a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system that will provide the School of Health Professions (SHP) at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center with the capacity to reach underserved populations statewide. Currently, the school relies on a “boots on the ground” approach with one recruiter and limited technology. Advising for underserved students is currently too lightly resourced on both the sides of the enrollment funnel, which is an obstacle that the technical solution of a CRM can help to overcome. Streamlining efficient communications and recruiting processes will enhance the school’s ability to reach underserved populations and help to prepare these students for entry into high-demand and high-paying jobs in the health care industry. The CRM implementation will be heavily focused on establishing communications and recruitment strategies that enable the student success division of the SHP to target recruiting to Early College High School (ECHS) campuses in Houston and Greater Houston and establishing seamless articulations with community colleges across Houston and Greater Houston to include Harris, Fort Bend, Brazoria counties.
