We Present...The Phoenix Project

The Phoenix Project was created to equip first generation, low-income, and/or minority students with resources for success in the college admissions and scholarship process. The idea came as the founders realized that the success that they were able to garner during the college and scholarship process was because of the information they had gathered through mentors. The Phoenix Project seeks to identify other "phoenix" students, who have risen above challenging circumstances. Thus, the overarching goal of the Phoenix Project is to make college education equitable across racial and socio-economic lines by utilizing students at elite universities to provide free college admissions counseling, personal statement editing, and scholarship application support for high school students.
