National Education Equity Lab
Talent is evenly distributed, opportunity is not. Connecting underserved high school students to classes from top colleges.
The National Education Equity Lab is forging a new kind of relationship between our nation’s colleges and high schools rooted in our belief that while talent is evenly distributed, opportunity is not.
OUR STRATEGY
We empower colleges to take a more active role in developing and inspiring the next generation of leaders. In partnership with pioneering universities including Yale, Howard, Cornell, ASU, UConn and Harvard (inaugural course), we deliver online college credit-bearing courses into teacher-led high school classrooms across the country.
By enabling high school students from historically underserved communities to take actual college courses from college professors, students can build the skills — and confidence — needed to apply to and thrive in college. Participating students earn widely-transferable college credits, at no cost to them — and have access to mentorship and hands-on support.
