in English

PARA PUBLICAR: 6 de octubre del 2011 CONTACTO: Oficina de Prensa, (202) 401-1576, press@ed.gov

El Departamento de Educación de EE.UU. ha otorgado $46,925,156 mediante el programa TRIO Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC) a 128 beneficiarios en 44 estados y Puerto Rico, para que proporcionen información y orientación a individuos capacitados que quieran entrar a la universidad o a un programa de educación postsecundaria.

"Un título o diploma de educación superior nunca ha sido más necesario para el éxito en la economía global. El programa TRIO ayudará a incrementar los estudiantes que quieren obtener una educación superior, dándoles información sobre el proceso de admisión y sobre cómo encontrar ayuda financiera", dijo el secretario Arne Duncan. "TRIO y otros programas similares facilitan la meta del presidente Obama de que EE.UU. tenga el mayor porcentaje de graduados universitarios en el mundo para finales de la década".

Además, el presupuesto del presidente para el año fiscal 2012 solicita $920.1 millones para los programas federales TRIO, e incluye fondos para otorgar subvenciones de continuación a los proyectos de EOC que fueron seleccionados por certamen.
