Created to level the playing field in college admissions,
Apply Genius uses artificial intelligence to guide students and
parents into their dream college – for just $10 per month
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- With college admissions more competitive than ever,
a team of Harvard and Johns Hopkins graduates has created a new online
consultant that uses artificial intelligence to help high school
students get accepted into their dream colleges — for just
$10 per month.
Called Apply Genius, the AI app is designed to level the playing
field for students and parents who can't afford to spend thousands
— or tens of thousands — of dollars on a live college admissions
consultant.
"Apply Genius answers any question you have about college
admissions, personalized for you, giving you access to the same
admissions secrets that the wealthiest applicants pay $10,000 or more for," said Michael Pankowski, a Harvard graduate and co-founder of Apply Genius.
"This tool is democratizing college admissions consulting, making
it affordable for all."
Available on the Apple App store, Apply Genius allows users to
start for free and costs only $9.99
per month for unlimited access, answering any college admissions
questions one has. And the Apply Genius team offers a quality
guarantee: If there's any answer that's not to a user's
satisfaction, the Apply Genius team will personally answer that
question by email.
As college admissions rates have plummeted (Harvard accepted only 3.6% of
applicants this year), the admissions process has grown
increasingly confusing and nerve-wracking. A recent nationwide
survey found that over 60% of students are overwhelmed by
college admissions advice, and 76% of students feel high
stress levels throughout the application process.
"Until now, only the wealthiest students and parents could
afford to pay for someone to guide them through this complicated
and stressful process," said Anthony
Colarusso, a Harvard graduate
and co-founder of Apply Genius. "Our app changes this, offering
deeply personalized advice at a highly affordable price."
Using a combination of proprietary research and top-quality
insights, Apply Genius is designed for both students and parents.
The state-of-the-art app is incredibly easy to use and
features:
- A Student Profile that takes in over 30 unique data points to
personalize every answer for each student's circumstances and
admissions goals.
- An Open Chat feature where students can ask any college
admissions question and get instant, personalized, expert advice at
any time.
- A Guided Chat feature where students can ask questions from the
100+ question Prompting Guide, packed with the most important
college admissions questions, and get a personalized
answer.
- A Chat History where users can revisit their saved chats, so
they never forget the crucial college admissions advice they've
received.
"To earn admittance to their top college, students need to stand
out from the crowd. Apply Genius helps students do just that," said
Sean Sebastian Darcy, a Johns
Hopkins graduate and co-founder of Apply Genius.
Apply Genius helps students overcome the numerous challenges
they face navigating the college admissions process. Among
them:
- College admissions is notoriously unclear as to who gets in and
why, and the Internet is filled with unsound, out of date
advice.
- High school counselors, especially at public schools, are
overwhelmed by the number of students they must help. The
nationwide average is 385 students per counselor, and 24%
of public schools have no counselors at all.
- Private college consultants are expensive – their average
rate is roughly $300 per hour,
and one charges a fee of $750,000 for their services.
