The Kessler Scholars Collaborative is an initiative of the Judy and Fred Wilpon Family Foundation intended to promote success for first-generation college students nationwide. The Collaborative supports and connects Kessler Scholars Programs at Cornell University, Johns Hopkins University, Queens College, St. Francis College (McGuire Scholars), Syracuse University, and the University of Michigan, where the first Kessler Scholars Program was established. In spring 2022, the Collaborative will expand to include projects at up to 10 additional institutions in a partnership with the American Talent Initiative and Bloomberg Philanthropies. The institutions and professional staff working together through the Kessler Scholars Collaborative are dedicated to supporting students who are the first in their families to pursue a four-year college degree. Our cohort-based program model provides financial, academic, professional, and personal support to help first-generation college students thrive across their undergraduate experience.
