Early Start!

Help provide scholarships – and inspiration – to high school students seeking to get an early start to their college education by earning University of Arizona (UA) credit.

Students at Cholla High School are currently enrolled in a year-long high school elective, Introduction to the Middle East, which is sponsored and staffed by the UA Center for Middle Eastern Studies. Some of the highest achieving students, mostly minority and first-generation college students, hope to receive three university credits in Middle Eastern History for their work. The course will fulfill a general education Tier II requirement at the UA and is transferable to other state/national universities.

Even though the UA has drastically lowered the tuition rate for the class to $490 for 3 credits, the cost is still prohibitive for many Cholla students. Your assistance would help these bright young people to realize their aptitude for higher education and to imagine themselves as future university students.

Your support for their college dreams will be the first step on their road to success.
