At Florida Atlantic University, we see the potential in students from all walks of life, and we help them reach it.
We use data-driven solutions to ensure that students from all backgrounds – many of whom will face obstacles on the path to achieving a degree – don’t fall through the cracks.
Whether it’s costly campus parking tickets or time-consuming jobs that distract them from their studies, Florida Atlantic is eliminating barriers to success, and building something better: an educational model that gives more students the opportunity to graduate on time. As a result, Pell-eligible and first-generation students outpace the University’s overall graduation rate.
It’s why U.S. News & World Report recognized Florida Atlantic as one of the Top 30 Best Colleges for Social Mobility, and why Washington Monthly ranked us No. 46 in the nation.
Access to a high-quality education for all who seek it.
That’s the Atlantic Effect.
