The Problem

Road to Uni’s mission is to address inequity in the U.S. college application process. Disadvantaged students, particularly those from first-generation, low-income backgrounds, face significant hurdles navigating this complex journey.

While wealthier households benefit from ample guidance and resources, students in under-resourced schools lack access to information and support.

The result: deserving students miss out on college opportunities. We bridge this gap by providing all students with quality information and guidance, empowering them to unlock a brighter future.

Facts

The national Student to School-Counselor ratio
is 408 : 1.

Only 50% of 1M+ low-income high school grads
apply to college.

*Low-income households are defined as having an annual income of <$27K

Only 33% of public high schools have a full/part time counselor exclusively for college advising.

Our Solution

Meet CABi, Road to Uni’s AI-driven chatbot. CABi delivers personalized support at scale to students from first-generation, low-income backgrounds. This “24/7 college advisor” empowers students without access to private advisors or sufficient counseling resources.

Most students have the same questions about college applications year after year. CABi answers these questions with instant, up-to-date, and accurate information. CABi frees up bandwidth for school counselors, so they can spend their time more deeply supporting students’ needs. The result? More confidence and clarity.

Road to Uni aims to transform the college application experience for students. With CABi, we’re leveling the playing field to ensure all students have a shot at higher education.
