“Without CatalyzED, I would have merged with the large cluster of students that are entirely confused about the college process. As someone who is not privileged enough to afford a private college advisor, I thank CatalyzED every single day for helping me with this process. My Catalyst makes everything fun despite the whole stress and really motivates me to meet some deadlines. Furthermore, CatalyzED is especially integral for 1st generation low-income students because I could have been easily lost & hopeless in even deciding a college, but every step of this process has been comprehensible and manageable thanks to the program.”
