Our vision has always involved closing that education gap between the disadvantaged and the uber wealthy. The college admissions counseling programs that cost upward of $20,000 are out of reach for most other than the top 1% of families sending their children to college. How can you pay for that when you're trying to scrounge up the dollars for college tuition itself? That's how Lucent Education was born - services that were chunked up, but still quality, where you're paying just for what you need. That broke down the $20,000 into smaller chunks. Then we re-imagined how we could further do that - online. That additionally saved costs that we passed onto our clients.
But, our hearts were still with all the families that couldn't afford a quality program - college admissions isn't an easy process and everyone that wants to attend college deserves the support and expertise that the 1% can pay for. So, alongside our current programs, we started a scholarship program that has helped college bound students from low income families navigate school selections, essays, interviews, and financial aide search.
We are currently in the process of changing our social responsibility model and we are looking to strategically work with local non-profits to help promising seniors get through that stressful college application process. If you're a non-profit in the SF Bay area or NYC area that would like to partner up with us, contact us: info@lucenteducation.com.
