About the Winner
This is based on the number of votes received and does not reflect the quality of the business or chances of winning. Stonehill Educational Consultants offers an immensely customized, student-oriented consulting service focused on the process of American university admissions, both at the undergraduate as well as graduate level. Our service seeks to accomplish three primary goals: to eliminate ambiguity and confusion from the application process, to match or "fit" students to an appropriate set of schools through extensive personality and pre-career testing, and to add strategic value to clients’ applications.
At Stonehill Educational Consultants, we believe in equal educational opportunity. As such, we offer our services to clients at a rate considerably lower than the industry average, and pro bono to a number of extremely promising lower-income students. Our business is also unique in that we use a 2-for-1 consulting model whereby for every paying client we advise, we offer our guidance and consulting services to an additional student free of charge.
Since the company was founded in April, we have begun to successfully create a presence for Stonehill Educational Consultants in targeted regional markets, have signed a wide range of promising students this application cycle, and have established strategic partnerships with schools and organizations in the U.S., in South Asia, in Africa, and in Western Europe.
We should be considered a a winner of the StartupNation 2012 Home-Based 100 Competition because we pledge to expand our organization, extend our resources and grow our business by training and retaining additional employees. We need your support to continue our service-based consultancy whose mission is to help students—irrespective of financial or socio-economic background—reach their educational potential!
