Helping all students reach their full potential
Improving coordination among the various sectors of education
Increasing two and four-year college-going rates
Helping students develop the core skills needed to succeed in careers
Improving Nebraska's economic competitiveness by helping keep more well-educated people in the state.

The University of Nebraska is one of the senior partners in the operation of Nebraska P-16, along with the Nebraska Department of Education and EducationQuest Foundation, a private, non-profit organization whose mission is to increase accessibility to college for all Nebraska students.
