COMPLETE COLLEGE
AMERICA
•
Oklahoma is one of 29 states accepted to participate in the Complete College America
project to help more Americans achieve their dream of a college education.
•
Complete College America (CCA) is complemented by the work of the National Governors
Association and its Complete to Compete (CtC) initiative. By virtue of Oklahoma’s
participation in the Complete College America Alliance, Oklahoma is considered to be
actively involved in both projects.
•
Oklahoma was accepted because the State has made a commitment to significantly increase
the number of students successfully completing college and closing educational attainment
gaps for traditionally underserved populations.
•
Five national foundations are providing multi-year support to CCA: the Carnegie
Corporation; the Gates Foundation; the Ford Foundation; the Kellogg Foundation; and
Lumina Foundation for Education.

PROGRESS & COMPLETION
Higher education and K-12 will work together to develop and implement
a strategy that seeks to identify students not on target to be collegeready by graduation and targets activities in the 11th and 12th grades to
reduce remediation demands in the transition from high school to
college.
Every Oklahoma institution will implement transformational models of
remedial placement and support through a statewide phased
implementation and refinement process.
Develop and implement a "Program Equivalent Project" that bridges
Career Tech credit hour completion to certificate and A.A.S. degree
completion in the community colleges.
Further expand and develop Reach Higher as a degree and certificate
completion effort that involves the entire system of postsecondary
education.
Reform Oklahoma’s successful Brain Gain Performance Funding Program
to provide metrics and accountability for measuring state and campus
progress toward completion goals.
