Product Manager
Location: West Chester, PA
SCOIR (pronounced like "score") is a funded startup building the first true network to enable mutual discovery and engagement between high school students and college admissions. SCOIR’s mission is to help combat opportunity inequality by creating broader and more transparent pathways for college education.
Founded on the belief that students are more than their SATs and GPAs and that colleges are more than their rankings, SCOIR is leading a revolution to transform the college admissions process from a short-term, quantitative transaction to a long-term, qualitative engagement. Utilizing the connectivity and data intelligence of the SCOIR network…
- STUDENTS discover and present themselves to colleges that best fit their personality, interests and aspirations.
- PARENTS gain advance insights into affordability and likely net tuition so families can make smarter application decisions.
- HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELORS spend less time on administration and more time helping students navigate the admissions process.
- COLLEGES identify, better understand, and engage with students who are considering applying to their school.
