Race to Submit is a countywide competition that is challenging high schools in Riverside County to increase their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and CA Dream Act submission rates to help students discover the financial aid available to them. These efforts have led to 15,150 applications submitted in 2014 to 21,592 applications submitted in 2017. The California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) has recognized these efforts and on February 23, 2017, voted to expand this competition statewide in 2018.

College Kickoff focuses the month of October on K-12 college and career readiness and is connected to the Riverside County Office of Education pledge-that all students in Riverside County will graduate from high school well prepared for college and the workforce. Additionally, the campaign is an outgrowth of the Riverside County Education Collaborative (RCEC) that was lauded in 2014 by President Barack Obama for increasing college-going rates in the Inland Empire. These events take place during the school day and include college application workshops, PSAT testing, financial aid application workshops, financial literacy activities, and college exploration. During College Kickoff 2016, 15,528 seniors and in total 63,803 9th-12th grade students participated throughout Riverside County.
