Empowering Students to Elevate One Another
Let’s Get Ready envisions a future when students from all socioeconomic backgrounds have the support they need to attain a college education.
Our program model is based on harnessing the wisdom, experience and engagement of students to create meaningful change for their peers and communities. Through our near-peer coaching model, Let’s Get Ready provides students with the guidance and support needed to achieve their college aspirations, regardless of their background or academic profile — and can support students anywhere technology is available.

“ I THINK IT’S SO IMPORTANT FOR STUDENTS RIGHT NOW TO BE GETTING RESOURCES AND HELP FROM LGR BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT THEY’RE IN. IT’S BECOMING SO EASY TO GET CAUGHT UP WITH WHAT’S HAPPENING OUT THERE IN THE WORLD THAT IT’S EASY TO BE DISCOURAGED AND DISMISS YOUR EDUCATION, WHICH IS WHY RIGHT NOW HAVING A MENTOR, AND ESPECIALLY THAT UNIQUE PEER-TO-PEER GUIDANCE IS CRUCIAL TO SO MANY FIRST-GEN STUDENTS.”
