We are a nonprofit college support partner offering a degree pathway for students who are balancing work, life, and/or family. We offer 1:1 coaching and our nonprofit, accredited university partners offer flexible, online, project-based coursework. Founded as PelotonU in Austin, TX in 2012, we’ve provided college and career advising to 2,400+ prospective students, formally welcomed 630+ students into our program, and had 250+ graduates earn 300+ Associate of Arts and/or Bachelor of Arts degrees. Most of our current students are working full time while they complete their degree, and yet: - Among graduates, the average time to complete their Associate of Arts (AA) is 21 months. - Those who go on to complete their Bachelor of Arts (BA) with us do so, on average, just over 2 years later. - Fewer than 25% of our graduates take out a loan to cover the cost of enrollment, though loan eligibility and amounts vary by student and aren’t guaranteed. Our Mission Our mission is to empower students to earn high-value degrees, so they can unlock more opportunities in their lives and careers. Our Vision Our vision is a more expansive view of who can be successful in college, so that more people can be recognized and rewarded for their talent, dedication, and skill. Our Values Students First We center students in everything we do. Belonging Everyone has a place here. Impact We challenge the status quo to create change. Integrity We keep our word. Continuous Improvement We raise the bar.
