College Equity First, Inc.

College Equity First, Inc. was established to enhance the conversation and transparency about campus climate and culture for women and Black, Indigenous, People of Color attending colleges and universities in the United States.

College Equity First, Inc. seeks to spark change on college campuses by providing authentic information about campus culture.  Our goal is to motivate colleges and universities to become places where women and BIPOC  students are as safe, valued, supported, developed, and celebrated as other students. We feel that it is important that colleges and universities are accountable for the spaces that they create for marginalized students and the efforts that they take to create more equitable academic environments. 

Through data collection, analysis, and substantive interviews, we synthesize quantitative and qualitative data about each institution into the College Equity Index™.
