Every year, nearly 25 crore students enroll for school education in India. However, only 28.3% of this number enroll for higher education. To effectively boost this percentage, it is imperative that students have seamless access to crucial college-related information and professional career guidance. CollegeDekho plays a critical role in bridging this information gap to support students as they navigate their educational pathways. The platform has simplified and democratised access to higher education through technology-driven solutions.
With more than 1.2 million students guided so far, CollegeDekho leverages AI-driven tools and expert counselling to offer verified information, customised college recommendations and comprehensive admission support. As part of its ongoing efforts, the company is working relentlessly to enhance its technological infrastructure and further optimise its digital enrollment tools for creating a trusted student guidance ecosystem in India.
By empowering students to make informed decisions, CollegeDekho aims to improve the percentage of college admissions in the country while ensuring that students make the right course and career choices to acquire the necessary skills for the competitive job market. This mission aligns closely with the Govt of India’s vision of Viksit Bharat 2047 (Developed India), where the nation’s young individuals will play a pivotal role in driving innovation and growth across the country.
“Through these ongoing initiatives, CollegeDekho aspires to unlock the full potential of the country’s youth by bridging the gap between their aspirations and available opportunities, which is certainly in sync with the Government of India’s vision for Viksit Bharat 2047,” says Founder & CEO, Ruchir Arora.
