51 of every 100 would change a major decision.

Gallup and Strada, 90,000 adults. The Federal Reserve found the same pattern in 2021.

They didn't choose badly on purpose.

The Gallup and Strada survey found the regret came from deciding without complete information.

If you're afraid of making the wrong call, that fear is reasonable.

A seventeen-year-old shouldn't have to guess at a decision that sets their next decade.

How many get it wrong

Gallup and Strada survey, 2017. About 90,000 U.S. adults who attended college:

  • 51% would change at least one of three decisions: their degree, their major, or their school.
  • 36% would choose a different major.
  • 28% would attend a different school.

Federal Reserve household survey, 2021. U.S. adults who attended college:

  • 38% would have chosen a different major.
  • 37% of those who left without a bachelor's degree would have attended a different school.
  • About 1 in 4 bachelor's graduates would have attended a different school.

Two surveys, four years apart, and the same answer.

What it costs them

  • Four years in the wrong place, with the wrong people. Who would they have become in the right one?
  • $1.86 trillion in student loans, owed by 42.6 million Americans. That is about $39,500 each.
  • $4.4 billion in free federal grants, left unclaimed by one graduating class. 830,000 eligible students skipped $5,339 each. That is one program. There are 10 million scholarships and thousands of other aid programs beyond it.
  • 1.2 million students transfer every year. 2 in 5 will transfer before they finish. The average transfer costs 13 credits, a semester of work, gone.
  • 40 million adults with some college and no diploma.

This process is scattered across more places than anyone can track.

So we built the only all-in-one workspace for the entire college process.

How is Sol different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is built to answer anything. Sol is built to get one process right.

ChatGPT searches the web. Sol has its own search engine. … Read more… See less

ChatGPT is a general tool with a general search. It reads whatever the web returns: blog posts, forums, sales pages, last year's numbers.

  • We went through the entire internet and pulled out only what this process needs. We keep pulling it, constantly.
  • It all lives in one database: 10 million programs, 10 million scholarships, and every aid program.
  • Sol's algorithms and tools are built for this process alone.
  • It learns from every student who goes through it. 51,621 so far.

"I was accepted to mechanical engineering on a full ride. I attribute my success to the financial aid tools and program-specific feedback."

ChatGPT is built for everyone. Sol is built around you. … Read more… See less

ChatGPT knows what you remember to type. Leave something out and you get an answer meant for the average person.

  • Sol asks for exactly the information this process needs.
  • It puts that together and never forgets it. It only adds to what it knows about you.
  • Every answer and every tool starts from it. You never explain yourself twice.
  • It tells you what to do next. Not a list of options.

Ask ChatGPT what a college costs and you get the sticker price. Ask Sol and you get your price: $10,000 a year at a school that lists $36,400.

ChatGPT agrees with you. Sol tells you where you stand. … Read more… See less

Tell ChatGPT you want to keep a line and it says great. Tell it you want to cut the same line and it explains why you should. Either way, you feel right.

Feeling right is not the same as getting it right.

  • Sol gives you one straight answer. No packaging.
  • It reads your work the way an admissions officer will.
  • It tells you where you stand now, while there is still time to change it.
  • You make the call. It won't change its answer to make you feel better.

"They want you to feel like you're right. This one is very straightforward. There is no packaging."

ChatGPT's hands are general. Ours are custom built for one process. … Read more… See less

General AI can do things now, but through a chat it is indirect and hard. You explain the task, it works out the steps as it goes, and you check whether it got them right.

Ours just does it.

  • Reliable. Every tool is built for one step of this process, so it does that step right.
  • Fast. It already knows the steps. There is no back-and-forth to get it there.
  • Complete. It can do everything in the process, not only the parts a chat can reach.

You stay in control. Nothing happens until you say so.

ChatGPT can't hand you to a person. We can. … Read more… See less

When a chatbot reaches its limit, you are on your own. There is no one to ask.

Every process we build for has experts behind it.

  • They go through it with you. Not for you.
  • They work in the same software you do. They start from everything it already knows about you, so you never start over.
  • You get both. A straight answer from the AI and a person's judgment, each checking the other.

"I get the personable feedback from my counselor and the straightforward answer from OpportunityOS. It's almost like a college admissions checks and balances."

ChatGPT can't show you its results. We can. … Read more… See less

A chatbot never finds out what happened after you closed the chat. We follow every process to the end, so we know what worked.

  • 51,621 people use our products.
  • We track every outcome. We know who got the result they wanted and what got them there.
  • Every result improves the next one. What works for one person makes the guide better for the next.
  • Each product shows its own results. Real numbers and real stories are on its page.

That is what getting one process right looks like.

"This platform changed my life."

Open OpportunityOS
Will Sol write my essays?

No. The writing stays yours. Sol is a mirror, not a mask.

Why no AI should write it

  • It makes you generic. An AI writes what anyone could have written. That makes you one more application in the pile, and the pile doesn’t get in.
  • It is fraud. The Common App, used by more than 1,000 colleges, counts AI-written content submitted as your own as application fraud. Yale states the same in its own policy.
  • It can cost you every school. A fraud finding can be reported to every college on your college list, and an admission can be taken back.
  • Your voice is the one thing no other applicant has.

What Sol does

  • Helps you find your story before you write a word.
  • Reads every line the way an admissions officer will, and tells you what they will see.
  • Shows you which lines are doing work and which are filler.
  • Coaches you to the limit, down to the character count.

What Sol won’t do

  • Write a sentence for you.
  • Break a school’s AI rules. It follows every school’s policy automatically.

"It was so good at coaching my writing to the character count."

How do I know Sol’s answers are right?

You don’t have to take Sol’s word for it. You can check every answer.

  • Facts are looked up, not generated. Deadlines, costs, and requirements come from our database of 10 million programs. Sol doesn’t make one up to fill a gap.
  • Every answer shows its source. You can see where it came from and verify it yourself.
  • The data is always up to date. We continuously pull every program and every application.
  • Sol’s judgment was taught by people who made these decisions: admissions officers and over 40 counseling firms.

Sol is AI, and AI can still make a mistake. That is why every answer comes with its source.

Who taught Sol?

The people who make admissions decisions, and the people who guide students through them.

  • Former admissions officers from UC Berkeley, UCLA, and many other schools. They know how the decision gets made because they made it.
  • Over 40 private college counseling firms, who showed Sol how the best counselors work.
  • Counselors from the Independent Educational Consultants Association, with 600 years of combined experience.
  • 51,621 students. Sol learns from every one who goes through the process.
Can OpportunityOS get me into my dream school?

Nobody can promise that. Every school has a fixed number of seats, so be careful of anyone who says they can.

What we do promise

  • You apply as the strongest version of yourself. Sol reads every line the way an admissions officer will, before one does.
  • You leave nothing on the table. Every program that fits, every deadline, and every dollar you qualify for.
  • You have more than one great option. Sol finds every program that gets you to your goal, including ones you have never heard of.

What has happened so far

  • Every student has gotten into at least one college they wanted to attend.
  • Hundreds of students, with acceptances at every top-100 school in America.

A dream school is one path. Your goal has more than one.

Do I still need a counselor?

No. You can add one whenever you want.

Sol does everything

It is complete. You never need a person to get through the process.

A counselor adds one person who is accountable for you

They get to know you, they know the process, and they know exactly how to work with Sol. Their entire job is to get you through this flawlessly.

They are beside you

  • When it gets hard.
  • When a decision is close.
  • When you just need someone who knows you in the room.

If you already have a counselor

Connect them. They see your college list, your drafts, and your deadlines, and they work in the same place you do. Counselors at over 40 firms already trust it.

If you want one of ours

Every Momentum Counseling counselor is top tier and trained on the technology. You are never paying for what Sol already does.

Get started
What happens to my information?

We never sell it to third parties, and it never leaves our platform.

Who you can share it with

  • A counselor, a parent, or a friend sees your college list, your drafts, and your deadlines when you invite them.
  • No other student can see anything you provide.

What we use it for

To make the guide better, for you and for the next student who goes through the same process.

Questions: contact@momentumlabs.ai

Is it right for me?

If college is your next opportunity, yes. It was built for you first.

It works whether you are

  • A top student who wants everything that is available to you.
  • A late bloomer whose grades climbed. Sol sees the climb the way an admissions officer will.
  • The first in your family to apply, with no counselor to ask.
  • An international student. Students have used it from India and from Afghanistan.
  • A transfer student, or an adult going back.
  • A parent helping your child through it.

If your next opportunity isn’t college

You can search all 10 million academic and professional programs today. The application tools are built for college first, and more kinds of programs are coming.

Is it too late to start?

No. It works from wherever you are.

  • If you haven’t started, begin with your profile. Upload once and it fills in everywhere.
  • If you’re halfway through, bring what you have. Upload your college list, your Common App, or your Naviance or Scoir export, and pick up from there.
  • If you already got a no, there is still time. One student wasn’t admitted early at Notre Dame, then was accepted there and at Harvard and Cornell.
  • If you’re a freshman or sophomore, start now and your profile builds as you go.

Every day is a day of the cycle spent. Start today.
