Let’s Get Ready envisions a future in which students from historically underrepresented backgrounds have the support they need to attain a college education.

Center students

Our program model is based on harnessing the wisdom, experience and engagement of students to create meaningful change for their peers and communities. As such, we focus on students first – we plan around their diverse needs, ensure our program is widely accessible, celebrate their talents and successes, and proactively seek their feedback.

Value, equip, and celebrate the team

We are committed to providing a healthy work culture by providing the resources, support and development all team members need so that they can lead with joy, contribute meaningfully, grow professionally, and thrive in their roles.

Embrace learning and seek progress

We strive to be transparent and realistic about our challenges, and embrace these as opportunities to learn, thoughtfully adapt, and continuously improve our work. We are relentless in our use of all types of data to drive towards our goals and contribute to the collective impact of our field.

Build and sustain an inclusive and equitable community

As we pursue diversity and inclusion in the field of higher education, we are committed to pursuing equity within our organization in all aspects of our decision-making, program design, revenue generation, and operations. We recognize the infinite horizon of anti-oppression work and know we will only make progress towards this north star by actively prioritizing diversity, lived experience, and cultural competency.
