Since launch, we’ve mentored 8,000+ low-opportunity students into highly-selective universities and hundreds of students into elite careers. Our Mission Talent is spread evenly, but opportunity is not. We’re changing that so ambitious students can land the future they didn’t think possible. Because when talent wins, everyone wins. We unlock potential and break down barriers to opportunity through the power of membership. Together, we propel the most ambitious students into uni, work and life. Our mentoring and masterclasses are the inside track on reaching the best unis and careers. Our members are the motivation to get there – daring the next generation to do the same. And our tech does it all at speed and at scale. Alongside Zero Gravity we have established the Zero Gravity Fund, which provides financial support to talented students from low-income backgrounds. Since launch, we've deployed over £1.5m of scholarships to Zero Gravity members.
Zero Gravity is really supportive and communicates well. It has provided a platform that is now a great community for students to gain advice from each other. I have a scholarship with Zero Gravity and it is so helpful during my time at university.
super beneficial and supportive!
Receiving the zero gravity scholarship allowed me to concentrate on my academic goals and made it easier to pursue the career I want. This was not done only financially but also through Web masterclasses set up for scholars to excel academically.
They paired me with a mentor from my ideal university who was on the course I wanted to be on, this meant I got tailored advice on my personal statement and interview technique. Without this help I probably wouldn't be in the position I am today
Really helpful in terms of career development
I have enjoyed my experience with Zero Gravity for many reasons. I started off as a Mentee in year 13 and eventually became a scholarship student at university. Seeing the range of services grow and watching the program expand has been very beneficial and the amount of insight i gained before coming to university as a first gen student was second to none. I hope to be asigned a mentor now as a university student however I have had significant issues with my Zero Gravity login details which has prevented me from signing up for the mentorship program. Although i have been trying to resolve this issue since August the team has unfortunately not gotten back to me.
The mentors given is great they really go above and beyond in every metric. Also the website itself is very interactive
Honestly the best! Zero gravity has supported so many students achieve their best, and I could be more of a supporter of their initiative and ethos!!!
The masterclass was very insightful and informative!
The mentors they assign you with genuinely help you with stuff like your personal statement, CV, etc.
It was really easy and straightforward to get in contact with and communicate with my mentee. I had a great time mentoring!
I grew up in Bromley and I grew exponentially with Zero Gravity. University mentor? Secured! University place? Secured! A little while later… Career Mentor? Secured! Internship offers? Secured in abundance! Thank you Zero Gravity!
The concept behind Zero Gravity is excellent and I am still in touch with my mentor whom I met five years ago. I am also incredibly thankful for the scholarship which has supported me throughout my time at university.
I was actually treated to TWO Zero Gravity mentors.... I applied to uni in y13, then again during a gap year. I'm now at Cambridge and I can positively say it wouldn't have happened without my mentor. My life has changed forever. Emily, Thank You! And to all the amazing team at ZG as well, of course <3 :)
Zero Gravity is a wonderful company that offer course specific support towards your application to university. I was supported every step of the way academically and personally and this support still continued beyond my application and now is tailored towards support with university. For e.g. the scholarship and opportunities posted on forums to engage with.
Having a Zero Gravity mentor gave me complete confidence in my application. I don't think I could have been better prepared. I had practice interviews and personal statement advice which I really believe helped me get into Cambridge! Highly recommend to anyone and everyone who would struggle to get support elsewhere due to financial limitations. Also as a Scholar my financial situation at university is much more comfortable, alleviating some of the stress of being a student!
Zero Gravity is an amazing organisation, which I truly recommend. In my school, I received little support in the university application process, which led me to be rejected from many prestigious universities like LSE. After joining Zero Gravity in my gap year, my mentor helped me with countless applications. This resulted in me receiving an offer from LSE and three scholarships, which fully funded my university degree.
Communication was great. I never felt that I've been ghosted on the platform. There was always someone to help and my mentor was amazing!
Incredible support! The support you receive from completing the program also helps you gain confidence in your university application but also during your time at university. I would recommend onboarding to anyone!
The scholarship scheme is great however all of the employer mentors are in business and finance. Hopefully they get some more career areas in soon
