Description & Requirements
CCCP Scholars Program Goals
The goal of the program is to motivate, inform and prepare students to transfer from a California community college to a selective Top Tier Research institution such as UCLA. CCCP Scholars have access to our summer and year-long academic preparatory transfer programs which guide students through the community college experience, the application and admissions process, research and pre-graduate opportunities and career exploration. We use Critical Race Theory as a framework to address issues from a social justice perspective, academic excellence and educational equity.
SITE LITE DESCRIPTION
Virtual/in person or hybrid activities that will introduce the UCLA CCCP Scholars Program, provide transfer r resources, look at multiple transfer educational pipelines, and a critical context to understand the role of community colleges in California.
