College In Colorado

As part of the College In Colorado campaign, the Colorado Department of Higher Education has joined with partners across the state to develop resources and collaborations to assist Colorado students and adults to plan, apply and pay for post-secondary studies.

As our relationships have grown, we recognized that much more than this page would be needed to highlight partner programs and best practices. As a result, we built CICpartnernetwork.org, an interactive site created to connect and invigorate educators, service providers and other community partners dedicated to academic and career success. The Website offers online discussion, resources, facts, tips, articles and opportunities to network and collaborate with others that share a common goal of reversing the Colorado Paradox. The Partner Network aims to supplement and complement many of the resources provided for students and parents on www.CollegeInColorado.org.

The Partner Network is your gateway to:

Regional Networks
Many diverse organizations, resources and services from all sectors work together within their respective regions to enhance student opportunities.

Educators In Action
Find out how educators across Colorado have put resources, including those from College In Colorado, to work in their districts

Community Partner Services
Share your mission for student success by highlighting your program, discover opportunities to collaborate with organizations in your area or find programs that offer the services you need.

The Pre-Collegiate Partnership partners with College In Colorado to offer a statewide conference annually as well as other events throughout each year.

The Pre-Collegiate Partnership consists of Colorado's pre-collegiate service providers, P-12 administrators and counselors, higher education admissions, financial aid and student services officials, community-based youth organizations, business and workforce development groups and individuals, public agencies and policy-makers.

Since May 2005, regional networks, convened by College In Colorado staff and local leaders, have been expanding in every region. Networks include representatives of K-12, higher education, pre-collegiate service providers, business and workforce interests, non-profit organizations, public agencies and policy makers. This page includes an updated list of 1,000+ individuals in 13 statewide regions, regional map and
Pathways to College Network information.

Colorado is home to nearly 100 groups and programs that help students plan, apply and pay for post-secondary studies. A directory of service providers, updates and Pre-Collegiate Conference information is provided.
