Catalyze is College Possible's newest initiative focused on improving student persistence and success directly on college campuses. Through this partnership model, College Possible extends the reach of your campus' existing student support services, increases student retention, and helps close the opportunity gap for students from low-income backgrounds. Our near-peer coaching model leverages passionate, dedicated recent college graduates who provide guidance and mentorship as students navigate the complex path to college completion.

College Possible coaches are recent college graduates, many of whom come from backgrounds similar to the students they serve. This shared experience allows coaches to relate to students' perspectives and challenges, fostering a strong sense of trust and accountability within the coaching relationship.

Your College Possible coach can help you:

• Transition to college and connect on campus
• Plan your semester
• Navigate financial aid and scholarships
• Develop time management and study skills
