The Posse Foundation is a national nonprofit organization based in New York City that identifies public high school students who demonstrate exceptional academic ability and leadership potential, focusing on those who may be overlooked by traditional college admissions processes. It forms cohorts of ten students, called Posses, and partners with colleges and universities to award full-tuition leadership scholarships to its scholars. Founded in 1989 after a student noted they might have avoided dropping out if they had a support network, the organization operates program offices in ten cities and recruits from more than twenty U.S. cities, including a Veterans Program to extend opportunities to service members. The foundation maintains a nationwide network of partnerships with colleges and universities that offer these scholarships, reflecting its broad reach across the United States and its commitment to supporting student leaders from diverse backgrounds.
