College admissions and financial aid can be confusing. I grew up with a single mother who made less in a year than many colleges were charging for tuition. If I didn’t have an older sister who had navigated the process herself, I don’t think I would have had the same higher education and career opportunities, and Khan Academy might not exist.
This is why Khan Academy has created resources to help students and parents navigate this challenging process. These resources include video interviews and conversations with successful students from all walks of life and admissions officers and counselors at some of the nation’s top schools.

Online resources can never be as good as a great mentor. However, we hope that we can help students get a solid start and to provide teachers, parents and counselors with a useful tool to help the students in their lives.
If you’re a student considering college or know someone who would like these resources, I hope you’ll take a look at and share our new College Admissions resources.
