Almost four million Texans have started college and not earned their degree. There’s not enough capacity in Texas’s higher education system to meet 60x30 by adding new students - we need a proven solution to help working adults finish their credential. The average college student has changed; over 74% of today’s students are post-traditional, meaning they’re older than 24, working 30+ hours, or supporting a family - and the higher education system was never designed to help them reach graduation So, PelotonU designed a solution with 5x results. Honed over eight years in Central Texas, our model combines two key elements: a flexible degree pathway called competency-based education (CBE) and a support program with individualized coaching. Parents, immigrants, 18-year-olds, and shift-workers have proven our model’s efficacy. Backed by their successes, we will scale our innovative virtual coaching program by 2025 to 8,000+ students across Texas earning at least 1,000 degrees.
