Description
Our purpose
We are here to create a world served by exceptional professionals. Our product, Casper, helps higher education institutions to look beyond book smarts, seeing a clearer, more holistic view of applicants. It’s used by 265+ academic partners in Canada, the US, Australia (and growing!) with 100,000+ applicants taking the test each year, and covers 80% of all US medical school applicants. We also host the Admissions Summit, an annual 2-day conference, and power the Alo Grant, an annual $100,000 research fund.

- A curious and detail-oriented approach to suggest areas of improvement and spot potential issues with the platform
