About Us

Our Mission

At College Success Factors, we are dedicated to guiding students and their families through the college selection process. Our experienced team uses data science and AI to predict costs and identify the best strategies and channels to secure favorable college choices at the best possible price. We focus on providing objective and transparent consulting services to ensure peace of mind for our clients.

Founded by two dedicated tech dads, we understand the challenges of navigating the college landscape. Our journey taught us that the perception of the perfect colleges and their costs often don't align with reality. Combining our deep knowledge and experience in AI, software, and decision science with extensive research, strategy, and timed execution, we've discovered how to secure much better prices for our children at the colleges that best fit their interests and goals. Join us as we share strategies and tools to make the right colleges more accessible and affordable for your family! Don't throw away good money unnecessarily.

We take the time to really get to know you—your interests, goals, and even the dreams you might not have fully put into words yet. With that deep understanding, we sift through thousands of college options to find those that truly match what you want for your future. And because the real cost of school can be very different from what’s advertised, we help you see the full financial picture so you can make confident, informed choices about where to apply and what’s best for you.
