Interviews were conducted with program coordinators of 57 university-school district collaborative programs. Results were analyzed to better understand types of collaboration, school populations served, university divisions involved, longevity of collaborations, size of program staff and volunteers, numbers of students served, perceived goal accomplishment, quality of collaboration, institutional commitment, and help needed. Collaborations were found to be typically long standing, varied in type, serving large numbers of city school students, satisfying to university partners, and perceived as generally achieving their goals. Programs with high collaboration were judged to be more successful. Recommendations for improving university-school collaboration and for further research are described.
