    CEO of NextGrad | Building North America's Largest HigherEd Media Network 🇺🇸 🇨🇦

    On Monday, January 6th, students from across the #USA and #Canada will step back into their high schools and see content from colleges and universities speaking directly to them. Through the #NextGradNetwork, these institutions will tell students, “We see you, we hear you, and we want you to be part of our university community.” This is not just another recruitment message; it’s a personal invitation. For students aged 14–18, this moment is about being recognized and valued during one of the most pivotal times in their lives. At NextGrad, we believe in making these connections easy, meaningful, and impactful. Our network bridges the gap, enabling colleges and universities to reach high school students in a way that’s authentic and relatable. It’s not just about admissions, it’s about fostering belonging, building confidence, and inspiring the next generation to envision their future. Let’s make 2025 the year we redefine what it means to connect students with higher education. The NextGrad Network is here to make it happen! 📸 College of Western Idaho

    It's the "Most Wonderful Time of Year" 🎄 to remind the students with whom we work about the benefits of filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). ·     It may be required. Many colleges and private scholarships require students to submit the FAFSA before they will be considered for financial aid.   ·     Most students qualify. If they don’t apply they will not know ALL the options available to them to help pay for college.   ·     It can help them make an informed college decision. The results are sent automatically to their chosen college(s) and assists students in planning their finances for the upcoming year. #FAFSAFirstStepInHelpingPayForCollege.

    A lot of companies say they care about making a difference, but few actually back it up. At NextGrad, we're proud to be one of the few that do. While some companies use their profits to throw lavish parties at conferences or buy expensive gifts for their clients, we focus on giving back to those who truly matter most - the students! To date, NextGrad has awarded over $600,000 in scholarships / grants to graduating seniors across the #USA and #Canada, empowering them to pursue their higher education dreams. At NextGrad, it's not just about business, it’s about impact! We believe in putting our money where our mouth is, and we're just getting started. Thank you to all our college, university, and agency partners who understand and believe in the mission behind NextGrad! None of this is possibly without your endless support! #NextGrad #MakingADifference #GivingBack #HigherEd #OOH
