The Jumpstart on College Act provides grants to support early college high schools and dual or concurrent enrollment programs.
The Jumpstart on College Act aims to increase the percentage of students who complete a recognized postsecondary credential within the normal time frame, focusing on low-income and underrepresented students. The Secretary of Education will award grants to eligible entities, which include institutions of higher education in partnership with local educational agencies, and to States. These grants will support activities such as curriculum design, teacher training, and outreach programs. States must match 50% of the grant amount with non-Federal funds.
