[YEP-DC] APIASF Higher Education Summit - Register Today

 

 

 

Register Today! 2013 APIASF Higher Education Summit  

  

On June 25, the Asian & Pacific Islander American Scholarship Fund (APIASF) will host its fourth annual Higher Education Summit. Last year's event brought together many leaders including the presidents of nearly all of the funded Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISI) to help advance the democratic mission of higher education and increase Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) student success. This year, the Summit theme will be  Moving Forward: Engaging the Changing Face of America and will include the presentation of new data, the exploration of best practices for supporting student success and the advancement of institutional capacity.      

 

With college enrollment for Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) students projected to increase 35 percent in the next decade, the success of the community is critical to strengthening the nation as a whole and building the pipeline of skilled workers that America needs. This year APIASF will present a series of concurrent sessions submitted by leaders in education and the AAPI community from across the country on the following topics:

  • Mobilizing resources and advancing institutional capacity to increase higher education access for Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders
  • Policy, program, or practice facilitating student access and success in higher education for Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders

The goal of the event will be to help increase awareness about the thousands of AAPI students who still need support to make higher education a reality and to mobilize resources to better support students and institutions to create the most significant impact for the community.

We hope that you will take this opportunity to register for this year's Higher Education on June 25 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center and learn the most recent data on AAPI students and the institutions they attend.
