achieve its goal of 55-percent college degree completion (either a two-year
associate's or four-year bachelor's degree, attained by 55 percent of the state

increase student enrollment and expand baccalaureate degree production by an
additional 10,000 degrees.

promote going to college and college completion. An early start on the path to
college can help students:
- pursue the right mix of
secondary school coursework;
- prepare for the college
search and application process;
- gain access to adequate
financial aid; and
- complete undergraduate
degrees and prepare to enter the workforce and/or pursue graduate and
professional studies.
