Recruitment & Outreach Mission
The mission of the Recruitment and Outreach Unit is to identify and recruit academically competitive underrepresented students who will apply and , if admitted, choose to enroll at the University of Washington. We will achieve this by making multiple visits to locations deemed 'diversity' sites such as high schools, community colleges, churches, and community centers. We will also offer a variety of annual outreach programs designed to provide selected students an opportunity to visit our campus. In this way, we will support the diversity goals of our institution while providing a service to the community at large. This year alone the unit coordinated over 100 visits for 1,928 visitors to campus and saw another 1,307 people at off-campus presentations for a total of 3,235 contacts.
