At the college level, complete u is the primary to and through program. Complete u begins in the second semester of 12th grade and remains an active part of students' lives until they graduate from college. In the high school portion of complete u, students prepare for the emotional and psychological challenges of transition; they participate in a financial literacy program and learn the hidden rules of classroom etiquette and residential life from experienced college advisors. After students matriculate to college, they receive a broad safety net of human and financial resources. The goal of complete u is to ensure that college bound students who are admitted to college are able to successfully graduate from college and become strong contributors within their communities and the workforce.
