I was in this situation long time ago when our Country start war and it was RAMADAN time but the hardest part was when my mom didn't want to take us to the Refugee Camp and people were running every direction and finally people help us to make decisions So, that's why in the Ramadan time feels So hard to see a Muslim Refugee who has to fast while they are still a victims of unfair war it breaks my heart

This is an amazing organization. They do the good work and help students prepare to succeed in later life. Their rate of graduation is impressive for such a newly formed organization. We need more places like this to show students of every race and socioeconomic level that college is a possibility for those who want to work for it. I have deep respect for every mentor at College Possible for the effort and time they give to these kids.

As a Minnesota resident, I take great pride in our state's reputation for Higher Education and it pains me a great deal to see our state slipping from its leadership position. Education is the future of our state -- and is critical to the success of our nation.

The one bright spot in all of the bad news has been the tremendous work Admission Possible has done to help low income and first-generation Americans get, and stay, in college. The model is low-cost, high results, and the program has grown because it truly works.

It is hard to believe that college graduates would be willing to work for less than a living wage, but whenever I've encountered staff members of Admission Possible, I have been consistenly impressed by their dedication and commitment to the program and to the students.

We need more of this sort of focused work in every region of the country.

This organization helps serve the most youth for the least amount of money. Admission Possible not only helps disadvantaged high school youth get into college but it also provides the support and skills necessary to help them succeed and graduate from college.
