Bruin Initiative

Bruin Initiative was founded in 2007 to encourage UCLA students to actively work toward lessening educational disparities through all avenues possible, particularly by preparing high school students for standardized tests and college applications. Children growing up in poverty frequently have lower test scores than their higher-income counterparts, and as the years increase, the education gap continues to widen considerably. As an organization, we aim to lessen this educational gap by providing educational supplies and leading SAT workshops for high school students. Our motivation is that this will allow for all of our students, despite their difficult upbringings, to reach higher education, and utilize their education to create a better future. Every year, Bruin Initiative selects highly motivated yet underserved high school students to participate in a SAT/College Prep Course taught by Bruin Initiative volunteers at UCLA, and holds college application workshops for seniors.
