Leverage Edu helps students figure what they should do and where they should be at - wherever that be in the world - to realise their full potential. It helps students navigate & assess their journey thus far, matches them to personalised mentors, counsels them towards their higher education dream with an employability lens, and makes sure that everyone punched way above their weight to make dreams come alive and truly be able to level up!

Founded in 2017 by Akshay Chaturvedi, Leverage Edu was incubated in DraperU, Silicon Valley, and had professors from NYU, UCLA, CSU, ISB among its first backers. It has continued to have that focus on pedagogy as at the centre of its existence, and continues to work with thousands of external mentors, psychologists, teachers, to design a world class experience for the student as they step up on one of the most significant journeys of their life - going to college.

With a team of 250+ driven student-first individuals, presence across 35+ locations in India & abroad, backed by prominent institutions like Blume Ventures, Tomorrow Capital, DSG Consumer Partners and others, multiple awards ranging from Arizona State University in the US to the Govt of India, features in Forbes, BBC, Bloomberg, WSJ & others - Leverage Edu has now helped create 10,000+ success stories, of students whose lives were transformed and with that their families. We want to do this for a million students, one special story at a time.
