FROM A BOLD IDEA TO A NATIONAL MOVEMENT

Our Growth and Impact

For 25 years, College Possible has evolved from a founder’s vision into a national leader in college access and success. The program model has been rigorously evaluated externally and has won national awards. Our proven model of 6+ years of coaching, personalized support, and community partnerships with universities and other entities, has now reached 100,000 students and counting. Give today and help turn possibility into reality for thousands more students and families.

Give Now

Making college possible means every student can dream big without limits placed on them by their background or zip code. Too often, those facing the opportunity gap are told college isn’t for them—but with the right support, they can achieve anything. Every student deserves that chance.
