American University's Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Matriculate, a national nonprofit that connects high-achieving high school students from limited-income backgrounds with college advisors, are proud to announce a new partnership to help students navigate the admissions process.

Sade Goodridge, American University ’27 and Matriculate High School Fellow ’23, shared: “This is incredible news, especially at a time when college can feel increasingly out of reach for many students. It not only demonstrates the university’s dedication to supporting students from all financial backgrounds but also reinforces its reputation as an institution that invests in student success. By removing financial barriers, AU is giving more students a real opportunity to thrive.”
