Matriculate

Overview
Headquarters: 
New York, NY, United States
Website:

Size: 
11-50 employees
Founded: 
2015
About Us
Areas of Focus: 
Education
Mission: 

Matriculate’s mission is to empower high-achieving, low-income high school students to make the leap to our best colleges. Our vision is that one day all the best students in America will have access to and be supported in the best colleges—regardless of their socio-economic status or background—which will give them a unique opportunity to change the trajectory of their own lives and the lives of their families.

Matriculate leverages peer-to-peer relationships and networks to empower high-achieving, low-income high school students to enroll in top colleges and universities. We train talented college students at leading institutions to provide the information, guidance, and support that these high school students need to apply to, gain admission at, and excel in the best institutions. College is an inflection point for low-income high-achievers, and Matriculate allows this overlooked segment of our country’s top talent to realize its potential and address income inequality from the bottom up.

Programs: 

Our Program Model  We train talented college students at top institutions to connect remotely with high-achieving, low-income high school students, providing the information, guidance, and support that these high school students need to navigate the college process. 

  • College student Advising Fellows leverage the power of peer-to-peer interaction and social networks to fill the holes in how these students approach applying to college. Advising Fellows serve both as guides in the application process as well as models of matriculation, having successfully enrolled in top colleges themselves. 
  • Each Advising Fellow commits to working remotely with up to four high-achieving, low-income high school students through the college application and selection process. College students apply for and, if selected, then earn the opportunity to serve as Advising Fellows. Advising Fellows are trained and assessed on their ability to play this role effectively. 
  • Advising Fellows work with high school juniors and seniors from across the country – from Hawaii to West Virginia. Matriculate works with high school students who have an annual household family income under $80,000, a GPA of 3.5 or higher, and have scored in the 90th percentile on the PSAT, SAT or ACT. 
  • Personal interactions between high school students and college students serve as the catalyst to shatter low-income high-achievers’ college perception gap.
Why Work For Us?: 

We are data-driven. We learn from our college student Advising Fellows, high school students, and partners in the field. By tracking the work our college student Advising Fellows and high school students do together we strengthen our model. We compare our results with the application behaviors documented in Hoxby and Turner’s research and in doing so contextualize and improve our impact.
