Common questions
Answers for wherever you're standing in the admissions journey, whether you're a student, a parent, or a counselor.
The basics, before you decide which lens you are.
An AI-powered college admissions platform that helps students discover colleges, understand their fit, and navigate the application journey with personalized guidance.
Students in 8th through 12th grade. Guidance adapts to whatever stage of the admissions journey a student is in.
Academic strength, test scores, extracurriculars, leadership, essays, recommendations, demonstrated interest, personal narrative, academic fit, and holistic fit, the same categories admissions officers actually weigh.
Most tools give you either data or advice, rarely both, and rarely personalized. mynugen combines a live student profile, 10-criteria scoring, college matching, essay coaching, and deadline tracking into one system.
Both. mynugen is built by three founders: a Co-Founder and Managing Partner with 35+ years in data, SaaS, analytics and AI leadership; a Co-Founder and Chief Counselor with 20+ years of education and admissions advising and a PhD in Molecular & Cellular Biology; and a CTO with 30+ years leading enterprise engineering and AI delivery.
Getting started, staying yourself, and moving forward.
Yes, in a way. When you sign up, you'll provide a parent or guardian's email as part of registration, and they'll receive an invite to create their own account so they can follow your progress alongside you.
That's fine, "Undecided" is a valid answer. SAGE adjusts your guidance and matches as your interests become clearer over time.
No. SAGE is a guidance and coaching tool, your application, essays, and voice remain your own work.
Yes, SAGE builds a balanced list of reach, target, and safer schools based on your profile. Personalized application planning and timelines are on the roadmap.
Yes, the free Readiness Check gives you an instant score and sample matches with no payment required.
Staying informed, without stepping on their independence.
Yes. mynugen supports students starting as early as 8th grade, with guidance that adapts as they move toward application season.
mynugen is built so your student can work independently day to day, while you stay informed through the dashboard and weekly summaries rather than needing to check in constantly.
mynugen collects the information behind your child's 10-criteria profile, academics, test scores, extracurriculars, leadership, essays, recommendations, and more. It's visible to your child and reflected in your parent dashboard, so you're seeing exactly what SAGE sees.
No. mynugen does not share your child's data with colleges, advertisers, or any other third parties, it's used only to power their profile and guidance inside the platform.
It's designed to work alongside one. mynugen's promise is elite college counseling at a fraction of the cost, since SAGE handles the day-to-day heavy lifting, and our Max plan still pairs that with live sessions from a dedicated human counselor.
Where mynugen fits alongside the work you already do.
As a complement. mynugen's own model pairs SAGE with human counselors rather than removing them, and the same principle is intended to extend to counselors already working with a student.
Yes, that's the idea, and multi-student counselor access is on our roadmap.
Yes. SAGE scores against the same 10 criteria admissions officers use in practice.
Max includes 2 live sessions per month with a dedicated counselor, plus priority SAGE access and same-day support. That counselor will be part of mynugen's own team once they're onboarded.
You'll get a summary of the requested student's profile, along with the colleges they prefer and the ones SAGE suggests, giving you what you need to pick up their strategy and move it forward.
