Problem or Opportunity
International Education: Aspirational but Challenging
5 million students study abroad each year! But the journey is challenging for the 1M+ students enrolling annually - in the US alone. The traditional model of University Agents (like travel or real estate agents) is antiquated, non-scalable, and mismatches students with universities.
The mismatch between students and universities causes failure risk for both - the student must start over, and the school has paid a 15% commission on the tuition but does not receive three more years of tuition.
