The federal Project Grant award of $2,190,400.00 from the U.S. Department of Education's Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) (CFDA 84.334) supports the ONE VISION PARTNERSHIP (OVP) GEAR UP initiative at Washington State University (WSU). The grant, with a period of performance from November 1, 2024 to October 31, 2025, will enable WSU to deliver a comprehensive set of college access and success services to assist low-income students, including those with disabilities, in obtaining secondary school diplomas and pursuing postsecondary education.

As a land-grant institution, WSU will leverage its expertise and facilities to implement the GEAR UP program and collaborate with other educational partners to serve the targeted student population in the Pullman, Washington area.
