About Us

501(c)(3) Nonprofit Organization

The us in Live Studius matters.

We are a student-built movement for ambitious people who want to learn, create, and grow. To us, a student is not defined by age or enrollment. A student is anyone with a dream, a vision, or the hunger to keep becoming.

Our Mission

Support students before good ideas lose momentum.

Live Studius exists to provide educational resources, financial support, and opportunity so students can keep building on their ideas instead of watching them stall behind financial or structural barriers.

Identity

Why "Live Studius"?

Studius comes from the spirit of being studious: deeply engaged in learning, intentional in action, and serious about growth.

Live means more than existing. It means showing up with ambition, attention, and care.

The hummingbird represents relentless energy, agility, and resilience. It reflects the kind of student who keeps moving toward knowledge, opportunity, and meaningful work.

Living Studius means building a life rooted in curiosity, discipline, and the belief that great things can be created from determined people.

Impact

How we make a difference.

Open Access

Educational resources should be accessible to students from every background.

Mentorship

We connect students with professionals and professors who can guide real growth.

Real Opportunity

Funding and support should help ambitious ideas move beyond the classroom.

Less Red Tape

Good ideas should not die waiting for permission from broken systems.

Approach

Build without unnecessary friction.

We provide open access to educational resources, financial support, and real-world opportunities that help students build on ideas they might not otherwise be able to pursue.

That includes mentorship from professionals, guidance from professors, and connections that help resources and funding reach the students who can use them best.

The goal is simple: reduce the drag that keeps strong students from moving forward.

Brian Baraty

Founder

After facing four research rejections in one year due to bureaucratic red tape, I created Live Studius as a means of providing people the resources I wished I had to pursue meaningful opportunities beyond the classroom.
