Post-secondary planning doesn't need to be overwhelming for students, parents, or educators. Sam Bernstein shares how his app Loper is transforming this crucial process into a personalized, engaging experience that meets Gen Z where they are.
• Only 74% of Gen Z teens plan to attend college, down from previous generations
• Students increasingly interested in staying at home or exploring alternatives to four-year colleges
• College rankings create unnecessary stress and don't account for individual fit
• Traditional planning tools rely on outdated checklists that don't engage today's students
• Average school counselor manages 400+ students, making personalized guidance difficult
• Loper offers a free, TikTok-style interface that helps students discover options aligned with their interests
• 90% of Loper users apply to schools they match with, two-thirds discover these schools on the app
• First-generation students benefit from Loper's approach that assumes no prior knowledge
• Parents and educators should celebrate the process, not just outcomes
• Specific questions about interests work better than generic "how's it going" check-ins
Download Loper for free to help students explore personalized post-high school options in a format that resonates with them.
