Stories from the Report to the Community: District 6 Partnerships Simplify Path from High School to College

Through a partnership with Aims Community College and the University of Northern Colorado, students from District 6 have the opportunity to seamlessly transition from high school to college with direct admissions and support services. 

District 6 high school graduates can enroll through the annual student data update form. District 6 then securely shares student data with Aims Community College and UNC, allowing both institutions to issue admission notices and outline next steps. Once admitted, students receive proactive support, including academic advising, registration assistance, and financial aid guidance toward FAFSA and scholarships. 

"We are incredibly grateful for our partnerships with Aims Community College and UNC," said Board of Education President Natalie Mash. "By simplifying the path to higher education through opportunities like Direct Admissions, we can ensure that every student, regardless of their background, feels supported and knows their potential is not limited by access to education." 

The goal of the program is to make the path from high school to college simple, clear, and supportive for all District 6 high school students.
