Remediation in higher education has received a great deal of attention over the past decade. This article describes one intervention to curb the number of students who need such remediation. California State University's Early Assessment Program (EAP) provides students with information about their college readiness before their senior year of high school. Using qualitative methods, the authors investigate how students use this information to prepare for and apply to college. The authors conclude that information alone, although potentially useful, is an insufficient remedy for overcoming remediation or increasing access to college
