College Access Initiative

The College Access Initiative (CAI) is a program in the Multicultural Center. CAI’s purpose is to provide outreach programming to a large number of underserved Arkansas students in order to bridge the access gap to post-secondary education. To meet this need, the College Access Initiative works with schools and community groups across the state of Arkansas to increase the college readiness of Arkansans by delivering workshops and trainings to students and their families.
