The Kessler Scholars Program empowers high-achieving, first-generation Cornell students to realize their full potential as leaders and changemakers. We cultivate academic excellence while fostering a collaborative community where scholars support one another, engage with curiosity and purpose, and develop a lifelong commitment to giving back. Through mentorship, resources, and shared experiences, we prepare our scholars to lead with integrity, serve their communities, and create lasting positive impact in the world.
