About ASU CAMP Scholars Project
The College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) at Arizona State University is federally funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Migrant Education and provides academic support to students from migrant and seasonal farmworker backgrounds during their first year in college.
CAMP identifies and recruits students from a migrant and seasonal farmworker background to attend ASU. Students are provided with academic, social and financial support to enable them to complete their first year of college while establishing a strong foundation for continued success at ASU.
Students receive academic, personal and financial counseling, with the goal of continued enrollment and graduation from ASU. CAMP also provides follow-up services to our students throughout their university experience.
What makes our CAMP so unique?
CAMP is the only program at a four-year university focused on serving the migrant farmworker community of Arizona. CAMP has one of the highest retention and persistence rates at 92% and has served over 200 students. Seventy percent of students receive merit-based scholarships.
The program is housed in the School of Transborder Studies, Interdisciplinary Building B, on the Tempe campus of Arizona State University.
