Xcalibur fosters understanding using data among educational professionals to empower students in becoming college and career ready!
About Us
Since 1999, we have partnered with schools, districts, universities, and state agencies to strengthen college access programming. Our team of evaluators, researchers, data specialists, and IT professionals bring technical expertise and firsthand experience working inside GEAR UP and other college access initiatives.
Equity drives everything we do. By equipping educators with the tools to interpret and act on their data, we help ensure that first-generation, low-income, rural, and underrepresented students have the support they need to succeed in postsecondary education.
With a focus on three core areas: external evaluation, data management, and professional development, Xcalibur is committed to equity in education, ensuring that every student—regardless of background—has the opportunity to thrive in college and beyond.
