College transition readiness

Rising Senior

Failure to launch is real. Despite investing heavily in college, families are increasingly unsure whether students are truly building toward employability, independence, and adult life. Rising Senior helps coaches and families support and guide students towards a successful launch after graduation.

The challenge

College is a major investment. Increased readiness to launch after graduation starts now.

College already costs families a small fortune. These critical years have historically been pivotal toward helping students move toward post-graduation independence. Now there are more challenges: employer expectations are changing, AI is reshaping early-career work, and parents often have limited visibility into whether their student is building the skills, knowledge, and follow-through needed after graduation.

Rising Senior gives coaches and families a structure for that conversation: what the student is aiming toward, what knowledge and skills are already visible, what gaps still matter, and what to do next.

For families

A fact and data-based way to understand student progress.

The pressure often shows up in ordinary family conversations: internships, motivation, majors, missed deadlines, changing plans, and whether college effort is translating into real-world direction. Rising Senior gives families a way to look at the same picture without turning college into surveillance.

Prospective families

Request family pilot access

Share the parent contact and student college information you want reviewed for private pilot access. Rising Senior will ask you to verify the parent email before review.

For coaches

Coaches are becoming more important, not less.

Many coaches already recognize the problem. The challenge is scaling structure, accountability, and family alignment without becoming buried in fragmented workflows. Rising Senior is designed to amplify good coaching, not replace it.

Request a Coach Conversation

Show families a clearer method for college-to-career coaching

Keep important student context from getting lost in scattered notes and check-ins

Pilot participation

A selective Fall 2026 pilot for early households and founding coaches.

Rising Senior is preparing a limited pilot for families and coaches who want to help shape a more structured and reality-based approach to helping students transition into adult and professional life. Family waitlist requests and coach conversations are reviewed separately so each path stays clear.

  • Limited Fall 2026 private pilot
  • Target group of 25-50 households
  • Collaborative founding coach participation
  • Initial focus on U.S.-based colleges
  • Selective participation, with details subject to change

Waitlist requests are being collected now, with broader review expected to begin in mid-June 2026. Timing and eligibility may change as the private pilot is finalized.
