We Are Scoir
Who we are
We are coders, designers, data scientists, marketers, and checklist operators. We are an expanding group of talented individuals who really, really like making intuitive software that has the power to improve lives.
Simplifying college admissions. Expanding collegiate access. Improving student outcomes.
What we believe
We believe students are more than their test scores and colleges are more than their rankings.
Higher education is the gateway to expanded opportunities for advancement, yet far too many high school students fail to realize those opportunities. We set out to fix a flawed college admissions process.
Our vision
A world where every student understands and appreciates their unique talents and pursues interesting career paths well-suited to those abilities.
