WHO WE ARE
Who we are: We build technology that removes barriers blocking talent from opportunity, combining the latest advancements in AI with human judgment.
How we expand access: Access isn't real if it's unaffordable. Through our sister company, Passage Funding, we provide financing for international students.
What we believe: Access to opportunity should not be determined by geography, gender, or wealth. We reinvest a portion of our profits to support those cut off from education - including our Afghan program.

Our mission is bold but simple: by 2030, we aim to dismantle the barriers preventing brilliant minds from accessing the opportunities they deserve.
