Why THE VERTO FUND?

The Problem

The Solution

At Verto

View the 2022 Annual Report

Since its founding, 30.6% of Vertoans have been Pell-eligible.

Over the past year, 48% of Vertoans have been 1st-generation, BIPOC, and/or Pell-eligible.

Many of my Verto classmates have traveled to other countries, while for others it was our first time away from home. Students weren’t just from New York City. They were from all over the country, from states I’ve never visited. I now have friends who live all over, and we plan to visit each other to continue making memories together.

Verto staff helped keep me on track to graduate. The financial burden a four-year institution imposes upon students is daunting. The staff helped me find the right school at a very manageable cost, and I am enrolled at UMass Boston this upcoming fall.

Strong connections with staff defined my experience with Verto in both Sevilla and London. One of the first things my Student Life Coordinator Eliza asked of me when we first got to know each other was what I wanted out of the semester and what I needed to get there. While I had an answer in January, by March, I had different goals and therefore different needs. Eliza was there through it all and without judgment.
