Origins and Evolution of Gateway to College (GtC)
• Portland Community College created the GtC program in 2000
• Students complete their high school diploma requirements at community and technical colleges while simultaneously earning college credits
• Young people who had little chance of graduating from high school are achieving post-secondary success
• The GtC Replication Initiative was partially funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
• Since 2003, GtC has evolved from a single-site program into a national network of 30 colleges in 16 states
