Billionaires Row Chairman William Benson Joins Board of Directors of Dynamic Emerging EdTech Startup My College, LLC

NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- My College (mycolleges.org), a subsidiary of Ur College Inc (mycolleges.org), an Ed-Tech company that specializes in the development of educational based tech and entertainment.

The FREE and unique digital-mobile, data tech-app developed primarily for "Gen Z" to choose the college of their choice with confidence, looks to become a leader in the high school-to-college transition research space. 

The vision is to help the more than one million students matriculating each year to personalize their college search criteria to include (but not limit to): tuition and fees, rankings, majors, athletics, facilities, class sizes, location, clubs and activities, crime rates, gun-free campuses, student body diversity, weather, financial aid and grants available to include military benefits and JROTC programs.

"The decision to attend college is often the most expensive investment made by young people, yet student-loan debt often keeps those same people from creating generational wealth. My goal as a member of the board of Directors is to provide insight as a successful global entrepreneur, and help put students on the academic path to reach their goals," explains Mr. Benson.

My College, LLC focus is primarily on the 15.3 million high school students with an emphasis on freshmen interested in attending college. Understanding the evolution of college research experience is vital to providing the necessary resources, especially given the difficulties amplified by COVID-19.  This unfortunate pandemic has expedited the need for the solution created by My College, LLC.

The superior information and comprehensive data provided will be current, unbiased, factual and obtained directly from the colleges' or universities' website, handbook or reliable and trusted sources providing an almost virtual, exciting and personalized experience. This "must have", feature-rich tech-App will also provide a forum to allow prospective students to interact with other high school students, current college students, faculty and alumni.

"In light of the novel corona virus pandemic, our App is even more apropos than ever before. Students will be able to use our App to get the most updated information available on which colleges are offering classes in person, virtually or in a hybrid fashion. Information concerning campus housing, meal-plans, tuition discounts or rebates will also be available taking out some of the stress related to attending college for the first time or for those returning to school," says management at My College.

There are 2,619 accredited four-year colleges and universities according to the Association of American Colleges and Universities. With such a tremendous number of schools and a myriad of factors to consider, choosing the right college can be complicated or overwhelming to high school juniors, seniors and parents. This is exactly where MyColleges.Org steps in to help them like no other tech-app can - it's like having their own personal college coach for FREE!
