本研究评估了全州范围内获得早期意识和准备本科课程（GEAR UP）补助金的干预措施的总结性影响。2005年，美国教育部联邦拨款1 920万美元，为北卡罗来纳州19个低收入学区的学生提供服务。直接的学生和家长服务进行了检查，学生随后的中学后入学集中在2010-11年毕业的高年级学生在北卡罗来纳州计划的齿轮。本研究探讨了家长和学生服务对中学后入学的影响。还建立了一个评估赠款目标是否达到的保真度指数，以确定是否达到赠款目标与中学后入学有关。总体而言，学生服务被证明对中学后入学有影响。特别是，有两个学生服务和三个家长服务，积极预测中学后入学。此外，平均绩点、学习课程和性别也预测了中学后入学的可能性。达到补助金的目标和中学后入学率之间存在显著的相关性。政策建议，包括齿轮了计划，以及建议，为未来的齿轮了评估。
This study evaluated the summative impact of interventions in a statewide Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) grant. This United States Department of Education federal grant was funded at $19.2M in 2005 to serve students in 19 North Carolina low-income school districts. Direct student and parent services were examined in relation to students’ subsequent postsecondary enrollment focusing on the 2010-11 graduating seniors in the GEAR UP North Carolina program. This study examined the impact parent and student services had on postsecondary enrollment. A fidelity index assessing whether grant objectives were met was also created to determine if meeting the grant’s objectives was related to postsecondary enrollment. Overall, student services were shown to have an impact on postsecondary enrollment. In particular, there were two student services and three parent services that positively predicted postsecondary enrollment. Additionally, grade-point average, course of study, and gender also predicted the likelihood of postsecondary enrollment. There was a significant correlation between meeting the grant’s objectives and postsecondary enrollment. Policy recommendations are included for GEAR UP programs, as well as suggestions for future GEAR UP evaluation.
