Ph.D. student Selander receives Ramp-Up to Readiness grant
Julie Selander, Ph.D. student in higher education in the Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development, received a grant from Ramp-Up To Readiness, a program of the University of Minnesota's College Readiness Consortium, to partner with Minneapolis and St. Paul public high schools to help high school seniors prepare themselves financially for attending a postsecondary institution. The goal of the Ramp-Up to Readiness grants is to help University colleges, campuses and offices create new or enhance existing partnerships with preK-12 schools and community-based organizations to increase the number and diversity of students who graduate from high school with the knowledge, skills, and habits that are needed for success in college.
