When your HECC committee recently met with leaders of the OSU Statewide Public Services, you asked
for additional information about our Juntos program and about data showing Oregonians with some
college credit but no degree. I’ve attached information about both items.
Please note the section on IMPACTS within the Juntos paper that indicates 100% high school graduation
rates and 100% college-going rates for participants. I’ve also included a financial overview and sources
of budget and partnership support for OSU Open Campus—the project home for Juntos.
The attached Ediventures data on Oregonians aged 25-64 show educational attainment statewide and in
the Portland Metro. You will see that over 900,000 people statewide have some college credit but no
Bachelor’s degree. (212,000 of that population possess a two-year degree.) About one-third indicate
interest in enrolling in college and most of them show interest in online opportunities. OSU Ecampus
http://ecampus.oregonstate.edu/ enrolls large numbers of learners worldwide with similar
characteristics.
Please let me know if I can follow up on any of this.

OSU can use its survey data coupled with U.S. Census data to help estimate its potential market size for online programming.
Key Characteristics of Target Market: Estimated Market Size

Total Oregon Target Market – from Census
data
Interest in enrolling* in college/ university –
from survey
Interest in entirely or partially online
programming – from survey
Estimating the Oregon Prospective Student Market* for Online Programming
Defined using U.S. Census data, and includes adults 25+, who have some college, an associate, or bachelor’s, in Oregon.
100% (N= 1,433,939)
34% (N=487,539)
From the 31% who are interested in online education in Oregon, the following additional factors would likely narrow OSU’s potential prospective student market, specifically:
o A high number of adult prospects, especially those who are working, who are interested in enrolling in a program will not actually apply. Interest does not always equal action. o Program yield: Those who apply and are accepted, still may not enroll. o Prospects may seek out competitor programs. o Prospects may favor free to low-cost models (e.g., non-credit, MOOCs). o OSU not offering the program of prospects’
choice. o OSU’s marketing spend can also limit, or
increase, its market size, by either not investing in raising awareness, or raising awareness.
*Eduventures and OSU changed the structure of this survey question in 2013, and therefore this percentage (34%) may not be comparable to previous years results.
Of the 1,560 survey participants who “clicked in”, 523 indicated they were interested in enrolling in college (34%)*. This percentage was applied to the Total Target Market.
31% (N=444,521)
Of the 1,560 survey participants who “clicked in”, 487 indicated they were interested in online delivery(31%)*. This percentage was applied to the Total Target Market.

What is Juntos?
Juntos means “Together” in Spanish and works to unite community partners to provide culturally relevant
programming for 8-12th grade students and their parents. Programming is designed to empower families with
knowledge, skills, and resources to prevent youth from dropping out of high school and to encourage families to
work together to gain access to college.
INITIATIVE CROSS-CUTTING CRITICAL AREAS
Currently the program has 4 main components:
1. Parent/Family Involvement 6-week workshop series: increased collaboration between families and
school districts, decreased dropout rates for underserved audiences.
2. Parent/Family Involvement follow-up monthly family nights: Empowerment of families to become
engaged in their communities.
3. Afterschool Clubs: Academic success, Community service, college applications and financial aid,
Leadership Development, cultural activities.
4. College visits, summer camps and college/ program connections
Juntos is located in 14 communities across Oregon with more than 700 family members actively working with a
staff of 25 facilitators and 5 coordinators:

Building Community Sustainability
Beyond the 6-week session, Juntos works with the students, families, school, and community to build upon the
connections and knowledge they have established. To ensure sustainability in the community Juntos:
Work with the local high school or the local 4-H Agent in OSU Extension to develop a club for the youth
and a club for the families.
Have monthly follow up meetings or regular workshops with families.
Train parents to become Juntos facilitators.
Certify volunteer hours for all the Juntos members who devote time to support new Juntos activities.
IMPACT
In the last three years, Juntos has been building a network of connections between families, schools, universities,
and communities. This work strengthens relationships and opens doors for young people to gain a professional
future, and has proven to be 100% successful. All young people who have attended Juntos with their families are
transforming their academic and personal lives through an action plan with specific goals.
From the first generation of Juntos in Tillamook, Madras, and Culver 100% of students graduated from
school and 100% are attending college.
High School graduation and College access rates in 2015 are 100% For Tillamook, Madras, and Culver. The
newest sites are working with 9th and 10th grade students.
Families who have served Juntos in past years come back not only to continue learning but also to help
other families in their communities including The Dalles, Sisters, Madras, Culver, and Tillamook.
All schools where Juntos offers its program have reported tremendous satisfaction with the results.
The Juntos model is successful in Oregon because of genuine relationships. Locally-based OSU Open Campus
Coordinators strategically partner with local community organizations, school districts and community colleges
to connect the educational system with families in a meaningful way.
