Our mission is to ensure that every promising high school student has access to the resources they need in order to submit the best college application possible
Much has already been written about the inequality inherent in college admissions. Private consultants carry a high price tag, giving those who can afford their services a strong advantage over those who can't. We think this is unfair. Our goal is to provide a more affordable solution that is accessible to all bright, ambitious students who are capable of thriving at top universities.
Esago aims to connect high school students with peers at target universities because we believe:
- The college admissions process can seem incredibly opaque and random to outsiders, and even the most capable students may find this difficult to navigate on their own
- Students who would otherwise lack resources/connections to quality college advisors need a more affordable and accessible alternative
- Increasing access to support and advice will lead to more diverse college campuses
- High school students are more likely to get more relevant and relatable advice from someone similar to them.
We welcome thoughts and feedback on our platform as we move forward. If you have any suggestions on how we can build out our network or would like to get involved, please email katie@esago.co
