20240425 - Personalized Admission - Alba - Tempe

The image is fully released. The model release is on file in Media Relations & Strategic Communications.

First-year psychology and sociology student Alexis Alba is a first-generation collegegoer from Lake Havasu. He received the Personalized Admission Project letter announcing he had been accepted to attend one or more of Arizona’s three state universities next fall - before he applied. His two older sisters went to ASU at Lake Havasu, but receiving the personalized admissions letter motivated him to look for resources to attend ASU in Tempe. He loves Tempe and is an Obama Scholar. He said receiving the letter removed some pressure from him and allowed him to spend more time applying for additional scholarships. The early acceptance letters are part of an expanding effort in Arizona to get more students attending college after high school when businesses are clamoring for more workers with higher education.
