Admit Insights - College Admission Consulting for the 21st Century

While most of the firms covered in this blog are involved in traditional manufacturing, the next company to be featured is not.

Admit Insights is a web-based college admissions consulting company that provides high quality, customized and actionable advice to high school students exploring their options for college via - www.AdmitInsights.com

Who created Admit Insights?

The founders of Admit Insights are some very bright and dedicated people; they include graduates of the United States Military Academy at West Point, a Harvard MBA, a Stanford MBA, executives at Fortune 500 companies and seasoned educational professionals.

The founders came together with a single goal "To advance the pursuit of post secondary school education by providing high quality, low cost, targeted college admissions advice to all". The founders felt strongly that high school students shouldn't need to pay thousands of dollars for a private admissions "consultant" in order to receive quality advice.

How does Admit Insights work?

1. Students log in and create an account.
2. Students populate their profile with their grades, standardized test scores as well as a host of other data that colleges look for in strong candidates.
3. Students select their top 5 schools.
4. Admit Insight's Admission Engine™ goes to work and starts analyzing the data the student has entered and comparing it with their target colleges. And in short order, the report is created and the student can immediately download it.

Students get a 14+ page report specific to their situation with personalized actionable advice on how to strengthen their profile and thereby increase their odds of getting into their "dream school" - and they have unlimited access through graduation.

Students can do "what-if" scenarios for upcoming grades and standardized test, thereby allowing them to forecast and plan their strategy.

All that for less than the price of an average video game and a 100% money back guarantee. Wow!

What makes Admit Insights so unique?

1.    Its Admission Engine™. Admit Insights developed its own proprietary algorithms, databases and engines. These proprietary algorithms and engines have been calibrated by those intimately familiar with colleges'  admission standards. Admit Insights constantly tunes its models and college databases to ensure the advice is accurate and relevant.


2.    No software to purchase or upgrade. Just go to the website using any web-browser. A student's profile and data are password protected and encrypted on Admit Insights server. Students (and parents) never need worry about data loss should their computer crash, get lost or stolen.


3.    Nationwide access 24/7. No matter where a student is located in the United States, they can easily access Admit Insights. This is advantageous for students in rural areas where resources and access to college admission advice and planning are limited.


4.     Students can continually update their data/profile as they progress through high school. New grades, new SAT/ACT scores, new classes – enter the new data to your profile and the Admission Engine™ recalibrate his or her score and profile.


5.    Students can forecast how they may do in future semesters by running "what-if" scenarios.

I wish this had been around when I was trying to figure out where to go to college; it would have saved time, stress and money. But then again, when I was in high school the Internet as we know it didn't exist, telephones had cords, a laptop was the size of a small suitcase, a cell phone was the size of a 10lb dumbbell, music had just come out on CDs….and dinosaurs walked the earth………how technology is changing the world.
