This report provides early findings from an evaluation of the “Accelerated Study in Associate Programs,” a program intended to provide an array of supports to promote full-time attendance and graduation for low-income students who need one or two developmental courses. This 3-year long model requires students to enroll full-time, take first-year courses as a cohort, and take advantage of student services such as advising and tutoring. They also provide financial supports to address the cost of tuition, fees, transportation, and textbooks.
