2017 College Access and Preparation Forum

June 20–21, 2017

In a challenging and swiftly evolving landscape for public education, the 6th Annual UC College Access and Preparation (CAP) Forum explored how UC professionals can rededicate ourselves to improving academic preparation and postsecondary access for all California students, particularly those from underserved communities.
