This community-based initiative brings together representatives from K–12 and postsecondary education, business and industry, nonprofits, and the Town of Sahuarita to pursue a shared vision and leverage resources so that all students have access to college and career readiness programs and receive two years of paid tuition at Pima Community College. The initiative exemplifies the SUSD mission, “Working as a Team to Help Every Student Succeed.”

Financial Aid

Students must be Mesa residents, show financial need based on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and have at least a 2.0 grade point average. The program is supported by funding from corporations, businesses, and a match from the City of Mesa.
