Prepify is creating a pipeline of talented, but disadvantaged students going to top colleges.

We aim to bridge the average 400 point SAT score gap between low and high-income students. This divide is contributing to economic inequity on our college campuses, where 74% of students at top colleges come from the upper quartile of the income bracket, and only 3% come from the bottom quartile.

Even with top scores and GPAs, the Brookings Institute found that the vast majority of high achieving, low-income students apply to no competitive schools.

We make students more competitive in the application process with free, gamified SAT prep. We then go a step further and connect these students directly with the colleges who are looking to attract talented, but disadvantaged students.
