Program overview: National network

PROGRAM OVERVIEW: NATIONAL NETWORK

First Scholars partner universities automatically become a part of the national network, with three main benefits:

  • Ongoing leadership, support, and resources, even after our start-up funding has ended. This will include: sharing program materials, standards, and best practices; providing ongoing management support; and collecting data to provide ongoing measurement of program results.
  • Collaboration and synergy, including access to program and fundraising staff at participating universities and the national office.
  • National recognition, providing exposure in media opportunities and other efforts.

First Scholars collects, analyzes, and compares outcome data from each university affiliate to continually refine the program. We illustrate the impact of our program on students who participate versus those who do not. Our findings help us improve student success strategies and grow the program.
