There is no greater disadvantage than a sub-middle-class upbringing, especially as upward income mobility continues its decades-long descent. However, thanks to consensus research, we have the solution - and our programs have been built to ensure, empirically, that our students have the highest possible probability of success. But this does not just help them: not only are we introducing new voices to the industry - the catalyst of all innovation - these voices are hardwired to lead with empathy, integrity, and determination.
Project Wall Street was founded in 2023 by a finance professional who recognized the need for a program dedicated to helping students who grew up like he did (low-SES/first-generation) break into the finance industry.
Our team is comprised of industry professionals from the top financial institutions on Wall Street - passionate about helping our students pursue their dreams and achieve social mobility. We aim to change the world one student at a time.
Our students are admitted members of the Fellowship: our merit-based high finance placement program designed for exceptional college students from low-income, first-generation, and similar parental backgrounds.

"Growing up, my father worked on a factory line: I had no mentors, no connections, no knowledge of the industry. No guidance. My path to finance - the barriers I faced due to my upbringing - was daunting... isolating. And I had to face it alone. I started PWS because the world needed a PWS. Because there WAS no PWS. Because I needed PWS. And I know countless others need PWS, too. I've already met about 20,000 of them."
- Jordan Burick, Founder of Project Wall Street
