We’re thrilled to share that NextGrad has been highlighted by OOH Today, a prominent publisher of out-of-home (OOH) advertising news and industry insights. OOH Today recently featured NextGrad as North America’s largest higher education media network, spotlighting our recent website relaunch and mission to inspire and inform high school students about future opportunities.
A Platform with Purpose
NextGrad’s new website, found at www.NextGrad.com, reflects our dedication to supporting high school students as they navigate their journey to higher education. Designed for high school counselors, admissions professionals, and education-focused partners, the website highlights NextGrad’s story, vision, and values while showcasing the breadth of partners and campaigns that have leveraged our network to reach students.
As noted by our CEO and Co-Founder, Michael Margolies, “The relaunch of NextGrad.com demonstrates our commitment to our Higher Ed partners. Our media network reinvents how students learn about Higher Education opportunities, and our new website is a great example of how we’re bringing an innovation mindset into Higher Ed.”
North America’s Leading Higher Ed Media Network
Currently operating in over 1,100 high schools across 80 media markets in the U.S. and Canada, the NextGrad network provides unmatched access to high school students and their key influencers—parents, counselors, and teachers. Our digital screens, strategically located in high-traffic areas, deliver around 100 million impressions monthly. With each impression, NextGrad helps connect students to colleges, technical schools, military opportunities, and career programs they may not have known about.
We believe in our role as a bridge to students’ future paths, helping them make informed decisions through meaningful exposure to higher education and career options. In fact, 50% of students report discovering a college they weren’t previously aware of through NextGrad, and 90% plan to or have already applied to a school featured on our platform.
Enhancing Engagement Through Digital Media Innovation
Our newly relaunched site not only strengthens our brand’s connection to higher education, but it also demonstrates our commitment to innovation in educational outreach. With integrated digital media planning, buying services, and high-impact advertising campaigns, NextGrad offers colleges, universities, and education partners an effective way to connect with graduating high school students.
Our Mission in Action: Scholarships for Students in Need
Beyond our media network, NextGrad’s mission is rooted in supporting students who are most in need. Founded in 2019, NextGrad has donated over $600,000 in scholarships to deserving students across the U.S. and Canada. We aim to award scholarships to one first-generation or under-resourced student in every high school within our network each year.
NextGrad remains committed to creating a meaningful impact for students, educators, and higher education institutions alike. Our thanks to OOH Today for featuring our story, and to all our partners, school counselors, and the community for their continued support in our mission to help students define and achieve what’s next.
