Your student’s list should reflect their best academic fit and the family’s financial goals. This occurs where they sit in the top 25% of the accepted student candidate pool.
Our software has a phenomenal record of industry-recognized metrics that demonstrate student success: acceptance, retention, and 4-year completion.
Our Students' Stats:
*IPEDS, National Center for Education statistics.
These statistics are based on 35 years of use and over 10,000 families served by Co-Founder Todd Fothergill, the architect of this software. Todd recognized in the early 1990s the rising cost of college and the willingness of parents and their students to take on excessive debt. It also was also becoming more common for enrollment management to play a bigger role in both determining which students are accepted, but and who receives the most merit award. This software is built upon the understanding that colleges continue to award this practice of awarding the best merit awards, regardless of need-based aid eligibility, to the top quartile of students in the candidate pool, regardless of need-based aid eligibility.
Our Mission
We empower students, families, and the advisors who support them with the knowledge and tools they need to identify colleges that fit the student’s profile and the family’s budget. By streamlining and automating common aspects of the college admissions process, we are able to provide an affordable solution for more families seeking college guidance.
The benefit of our 50+ years of collective expertise makes our program and process a substantial value. We believe more students should have access to the expert knowledge previously available only to those who could afford expensive college coaching.
