Welcome to U Prep

Building an unbreakable foundation for young scholars so they can pursue higher education and limitless career opportunities.

All kids can achieve.

U Prep exists to transform public education and prove what’s possible for all children, from all backgrounds. We work hand in hand with families to ensure a lifetime of opportunities.

Preparing our young scholars for higher education brings them greater opportunities as young adults.

U Prep’s founding kindergarten scholars from 2011 are dismantling the status quo, with more than 90% on track to obtain a post-secondary certificate or degree. Whether heading out of state to Oklahoma, LSU or Case Western Reserve or staying local and attending Regis, DU, CU or CSU, our five-year-olds from more than a decade ago are thriving. They are pursuing their dreams and ambitions and breaking the statistical realities that surround them.

The most impactful thing an educator said to me at U Prep was ‘to climb the mountain to college’ … it was the first time someone outside of my house told me I could believe in something bigger for myself.
