NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AtomicMind, an education technology company that offers families a boutique coaching experience in the increasingly competitive college admissions landscape, today announced the launch of a unique technology platform. The new offering provides a comprehensive and personalized college application experience by combining hands-on expert guidance from dedicated advisors with powerful virtual assignment management, communication and feedback tools.
The platform was designed by MIT and Harvard graduates using best practices identified over their combined 40+ years of experience helping students get into top colleges. It gives college applicants the benefit of enhanced feedback and collaboration with a team of experts, including strategists, writing coaches, and former admissions staff members from elite colleges like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Brown, MIT, and Stanford. The AtomicMind platform handles every aspect of the admissions process, from crafting persuasive essays to mastering interviews to refining college activities and shortlists. The technology includes tools to keep track of deadlines and important documents, while providing applicants with key insights into what each college admissions committee is looking for. With the platform, more students will have access to the best resources regardless of where they live.
“The new AtomicMind platform provides families with access to the tools and experts needed to navigate the increasingly high standards of the elite college admissions process,” said Leelila Strogov, AtomicMind founder and CEO. “The platform aims to maximize college acceptance rates by helping students more effectively build college shortlists, create tailored applications and stay organized. It also provides parents with an opportunity to monitor the progress of their students’ college applications. This saves busy applicants the added stress of providing updates to their parents or the feeling of being interrogated.”
Competition for admission to top universities is fiercer than ever. Applications rose 21.3% between the 2019-2020 and 2021-2022 admissions cycles, according to a March 2022 Common Application report. Harvard, Yale and Brown reported record low acceptance rates, with Harvard falling to 3.19%, lowest since inception.
AtomicMind’s platform provides structure to the college application process that facilitates increased student engagement, efficiency, accountability, and quality. Highlights of the platform include:
-
A college shortlisting section that enables students and their advisors to more effectively track and discuss which colleges students are considering, making it easier to develop optimal Early Action, Early Decision, and Regular decision.
-
An assignment management system that provides easy and efficient tracking—and communication between—students and advisors for every step of the application process.

Save all essential documents and information, including drafts of application essays, lists of extracurricular activities, and school transcripts.
