Mission Ascent is an award winning company on a mission to provide access to education for millions of underserved students every year. We believe education is an investment in students’ futures, and we want to empower students of all economic backgrounds and disciplines to maximize the return on that investment.

We embrace a culture of collaboration and ensure every employee is set up for success. Ascent encourages employees to recharge through generous time-off programs and incentive bonuses. For every three years of service, Ascent rewards employees with a vacation bonus and an additional incentive for the employees to spend on themselves. During this time, IT disables account access, including emails, forcing employees to take their well-earned time off.
Description Ascent Funding (“Ascent”) is an award-winning, rapidly growing FinTech company that is on a mission to revolutionize the way people pay for college.

We aim to fix a broken higher education system by being transparent and offering products that support a greater population of students through our Ascent College Loans (cosigned and non-cosigned student loans for undergraduate and graduate school) and Bootcamp Loans (consumer loans and Income Share Agreements (ISAs) for technical bootcamps and accelerated skills training programs) financing options.

We believe education is an investment in your future, and we want to empower you, and students of all economic backgrounds and disciplines, to maximize your return on that investment. Ascent offers exclusive benefits (such as 1% cash back, scholarships, a Refer A Friend, a Rewards Program, and more) as well as free resources that set students and families up for financial success.
