This program was established in 2013 to increase the yield and pool of high quality diversity and low-income applications to the University. To this end, the IDEA Fund has developed a program to reach out to academically competitive diverse and low-income candidates to educate them on applying, qualifying, and paying for UVA. The objective is to give both the students and their families the understanding and confidence that, if they continue on their current path, they can attend a school like UVA.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, the Early ID Program worked with middle school administrators and other community organizations to generate a list of students in their 6th and 7th grade year with the potential to attend a four-year college if provided appropriate mentoring and support. By identifying potential UVA students early in the process, Trustees were able to better prepare them for the demands of getting into college, and knowing how to fund their higher education.<\/p>\n<p>The IDEA Fund kicked off the Early ID Program in 2014 by establishing a partnership with Arlington Virginia County Office of Minority Achievement, which provided the conduit into the county middle schools. The Trustees conducted an essay contest with one of the county middle schools to identify and target kids and families for the first early ID pilot. The eight selected winners of the contest were hosted with their families at UVA for a \u201cFamily Day\u201d event in the spring with UVA Admissions led by Dean Valerie Gregory from the <a href=\"https:\/\/admission.virginia.edu\/outreach\">Outreach team at the Office of Undergraduate Admission<\/a>.\u00a0The event included travel for up to four family members, presentation by Dean Roberts, panel discussion with current UVA students, tour of Grounds, and ended with a dinner at an Arlington restaurant upon return. In the fall of 2014, the Trustees hosted the same students with their families to share information provided by the <a href=\"http:\/\/admission.virginia.edu\/admission\">Office of Undergraduate Admissions<\/a><span style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u00a0<\/span>and upcoming summer program opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The Early ID program serves as a model that the University will replicate in other Virginia communities with under-served potential applicants to the University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conceived and led by former IDEA Fund Chair, Russell Logan, the Fund\u2019s second \u201cBig IDEA\u201d was the Early ID Program.
