College Possible Wisconsin is proud to share that we have been named the 2026 Outstanding Community Partner by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Enrollment Management.
This recognition honors our shared commitment to expanding college access and success for students across Wisconsin and reflects the strength of our partnership with UW-Madison in helping students navigate the path to and through higher education.
For years, College Possible Wisconsin has worked alongside students, families, and school communities to ensure that talented students, especially those from low-income backgrounds and first-generation families, have the support, guidance, and resources they need to earn a college degree. Through personalized coaching from high school through college graduation, our team helps students navigate admissions, financial aid, persistence, and career readiness.
Being recognized by one of our state’s leading institutions reinforces the importance of that work and the collective effort behind it.
“This recognition from UW-Madison reflects what is possible when institutions and community partners work together with students at the center,” says College Possible Program Director, Lauren McDuffie. “We are grateful for our partnership with the university and excited to continue creating pathways that help students access college, persist through challenges, and achieve their goals.”
This award also celebrates the dedication of our staff, who continue to show up every day for students with expertise, compassion, and an unwavering belief in their potential.
As we look ahead, we remain focused on building stronger pathways to opportunity and ensuring more students across Wisconsin can see college as a realized dream.
We are honored by this recognition and proud to continue this work alongside UW-Madison and our many partners across the state.
