Partners & schools
Together, partners keep our work free.
Project Access Austria works with schools, universities, companies, foundations and private supporters. Partners provide funding, expertise and reach. Schools mainly help us inform students directly about our free support, mentoring and bootcamp.
Why partnership
Educational opportunities take many hands.
Private guidance on international university applications often costs several thousand euros. Project Access Austria provides comparable guidance free of charge, through students and alumni of international universities, an annual application bootcamp and short school visits across Austria. Sponsorship, network access and schools that host information visits make this possible. A partnership is a concrete way to support educational opportunity.

Funding
Fund the bootcamp, mentoring and outreach.
Sponsorship covers accommodation, meals, materials and travel costs, so applicants can take part regardless of family budget.
Expertise
Perspectives from study and practice.
Mentors, alumni and selected specialists occasionally share their experience, for example at the bootcamp, in Q&As or through contacts with universities and scholarship programmes.
Spaces
Spaces for selected formats.
Universities, companies and other partners can contribute rooms or organisational support for selected events. School collaborations usually consist of short information visits on site.
Reach

From a partner
We at McKinsey are deeply convinced that more diverse teams perform better. Besides gender and ethnicity, socio-economic background is a key dimension along which we as a firm work hard every day to become more diverse and inclusive. It's our pleasure to support an organisation like Project Access, which makes sure that only talent and passion determine someone's path in education, rather than the socio-economic background.
School partnerships

Many students only learn late that free support exists for applications to international universities. In a school collaboration, Project Access Austria visits the school, briefly presents its programmes and explains how mentoring and the bootcamp can help.
