We’re excited to share that College Greenlight will be at the National Partnership for Educational Access Conference (#NPEA2025), starting April 2nd in Philadelphia! ? Fun fact: College Greenlight was born at this very conference back in 2012 in Chicago! Since then, we've been proud to work alongside counselors, CBOs, and colleges to support first-gen and underrepresented students on their path to college. Stop by our booth and chat with us about how to talk to students and families about pre-college summer programs — a powerful opportunity for students to explore campuses and make connections, our Match direct admissions platform, and all of our free resources for college access professionals. We can't wait to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones. See you there! Learn more about the NPEA 2025 Conference: https://lnkd.in/gtaiUN5K

关于我们
At College Greenlight, we believe that all students deserve to attend a college that will allow them to succeed to their fullest potential. Finding that college, however, can be challenging for students who don't have easy access to effective college admissions support and resources. The goal of College Greenlight is to make it simpler for first-generation, lower-income, and historically underserved students to attend their dream colleges.
By providing a unique variety of free search and profile tools for students, counselors, and community-based organizations, we connect students with colleges that match their character and abilities, greatly increasing their chances of success in school and after. We encourage students to look beyond basic admissions requirements and focus on factors such as social fit and support programs. We also provide resources to help students fund college by highlighting special scholarship and financial aid opportunities.
College Greenlight helps high school counselors and community-based organizations provide support to their students throughout the college search and application process. With features such as "best fit"? college lists, customized college profiles, and a rich scholarship database, students will receive assistance each step of the way to help create the smoothest possible transition from high school to college.
College Greenlight is a service provided by Cappex.com, a leading college search website that has relationships with hundreds of colleges nationwide and years of experience helping millions of students achieve their college dreams.
