Higher education is the surest path to opportunity and earning power. It provides not only the hard skills necessary in the job market, but also critical thinking skills, a path to individual and personal growth, and the chance to give back to your community.

Our state’s six public universities and 34 community and technical colleges are helping hundreds of thousands of students prepare for successful careers and prosperous lives — and they can do the same for your student.

Every student’s interests and goals are different, so we encourage you to explore the range of options available, from the different areas of study that will prepare them for their career to the many scholarships and financial aid options that will put a diploma within reach.
