Abstract: Advise TX, launched in 2011-12 as a partnership between the College Advising Corps and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, seeks to increase college enrollment among Texas students. This annual report, required by the General Appropriations Act, Senate Bill 1, Article III, Rider 33, 89th Legislature, describes and evaluates the program's impact. Findings align with Advise TX's goals and remain consistent with the original randomized controlled trial, which demonstrated greater enrollment gains for historically underrepresented student groups. This report covers three high school graduating classes using multiple data sources: (1) 2022-23 (class of 2023) student-level enrollment outcomes benchmarked against peers statewide; (2) 2023-24 (class of 2024) student-level enrollment outcomes, using internal Advise TX data; (3) 2023-24 high school-level Texas college application and 2024 Free Application for Student Federal Aid (FAFSA) rates comparing Advise TX with the rest of Texas; and (4) 2024-25 (class of 2025) Advise TX overall program specific results, including key performance indicators (KPIs) and student survey responses.
