Lumina Foundation Awards CSU for The Great Admissions Redesign Challenge

[The] California State University [is] among just seven selected by Lumina Foundation in national competition to transform how students get into college … With the grant funding, the CSU will partner with the California College Guidance Initiative (CCGI) to expand outreach and support to students in high school through CaliforniaColleges.edu, the State of California’s official college and career planning platform. Guidance and support communications will be sent to 9th through 11th grade students. Qualified 12th grade students will be offered admission to most of the Cal State universities and the opportunity to apply to more competitive universities and impacted majors. The partnership will also include the electronic delivery of final high school transcripts.
