Tertiary Programme

Tertiary Programme

Securing a place at a university or college is a massive achievement, and for many students from under-served communities, the transition to higher education is where the journey becomes most difficult.

The Tertiary Programme is designed to support tertiary students until they reach the finish line of their first degree, certificate or trade qualification. We provide the financial, residential, and emotional scaffolding necessary to ensure individual success

Comprehensive Sponsorship

We believe that a student cannot study effectively if they are worried about basic needs. Our tertiary support includes:

  • Monthly Stipends: A modest allowance to cover transport and personal essentials, teaching students the basics of financial budgeting.
  •  Accommodation: Alex Village is our dedicated student residence where our tertiary students live together.

Continued Mentorship & Wellness

Our wrap-around care continues through:

  • Wellness Access: Continued access to our professional counselors to manage the stress and imposter syndrome that often affects first-generation students.
