About Us

Outreach and Community Involvement (COCI)

Outreach coordinates initiatives and programs in partnership with local and regional school districts, businesses, and organizations relating to college awareness, recruitment and retention. UNT Outreach coordinates educational outreach programs, the Multicultural Scholastic Award Program, campus visits, G-Force and Go Center campaigns and workshops that seek to identify students, as early as elementary school (grades K-10) and to provide motivation, encouragement, and information needed to matriculate successfully through high school to higher education. These programs help to create a college-going culture and seek to empower students through the realization that a college education is completely within the realm of possibility.
