Mission
Our mission is to help institutions build a culture of student success, with a focus on Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Asian, and Pacific Islander students, and poverty-affected students, by identifying, building, and scaling equitable and holistic advising solutions that support all facets of the student experience.
Vision
Our vision is a higher education landscape that has eliminated race and income as predictors of student success through a reformed approach to advising, in which all students are supported through a seamless, personalized postsecondary experience that creates better personal, academic, and professional outcomes.
