Built by the team that built Guidewell.
The PATH Program was created by education entrepreneurs dedicated to bridging the gap between academic excellence and career success.
We name both co-founders here, with their photographs, once each has approved his own words. Until then we would rather leave the space empty than fill it.
Getting in was the hard part families already paid for. Getting hired is the part nobody was building. That is the part we build.
Our philosophy is built on permanence, not trends.
We started with a question most families don't ask until it's too late: what happens after the acceptance letter? The world's best admissions counselors get students into top schools, but no one was building what comes next. The PATH Program was born to fill that gap. Not as a job placement service, but as a 3-year career architecture program.
We don't place students in jobs. We build the mentorship, skills, and network that make them the obvious hire.
We're bootstrapped: $200,000 of founder capital, no venture funding. That's intentional. Our incentives are aligned with families, not investors. We succeed when your child succeeds.
Our co-founder built Guidewell Education into a PE-backed company serving 20,000+ students across 9 brands. That same referral network, 4,000+ families per year, is now the pipeline for PATH. And through YPO, both co-founders have direct access to a global network of chief executives. That's the mentor network your child steps into.
