Sixup is a public benefit corporation and online lending platform innovating education financing and digital wrap-around support for high-achieving, low-income students who are underserved and underfunded. Sixup believes the path to the American Dream leads through college. However, for millions of first-generation, low-income students the pathway to and through college is broken. They have the ambition and the smarts, but face an un-level playing field. Lack of access to capital prevents low-income students from accessing the same colleges, opportunities, and outcomes of their higher-income peers. Through a unique credit model Sixup is mobilizing a new system to aggregate, underwrite, fund, and incubate undervalued and deserving students.
