About us
At College Possible, we envision a day when a student’s future is determined solely by their talent, motivation and effort. As one of the largest and most successful college access and success organizations in the country, since 2000 College Possible has empowered more than 85,700 students from under-represented communities on their path to earning a college degree. Our pioneering model matches eligible students with a near-peer coach and an evidence-based curriculum designed to help them overcome the most common barriers to getting into college and completing their degree – all at no cost to students or their families. Compared with their peers from similar backgrounds, College Possible students are 30% more likely to enroll in college the year after high school graduation, and three times more likely to earn a bachelor’s degree. Headquartered in Saint Paul, MN, College Possible operates: regional sites in Austin, TX; Chicago, IL; Milwaukee, WI; Omaha, NE; Philadelphia, PA; Portland, OR; Saint Paul, MN; and Seattle, WA; as well as Catalyze partnerships in California, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Tennessee and Texas.

- College Possible has spent over 20 years creating and illuminating pathways for students who have immediate and historic barriers toward college access and success. One such barrier is racism and the legacy of slavery on the institutions of this country. We, however, celebrate a triumphant moment born out of a dark history. On June 19th, 1865, Union soldiers informed enslaved African Americans in Galveston, TX, of their emancipation, proclaimed two and a half years prior. In the 159 years since, there have been continuous barriers and systems placed in the way of African Americans, and movements and institutions created to fight those injustices. At College Possible, we join with millions around the country commemorating Juneteenth, affirming our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and the empowerment of students who have been gate-kept from higher education.
- Welcome Weeks are fast approaching for our 2024–2025 AmeriCorps coaches! Wondering what you can expect in this onboarding experience? Check out this blog explaining everything you’ll learn before you start working with students: https://bit.ly/3OhJ9H9
