About Us

We started Pegasus because we saw so many students feeling lost, unsure what to do, and lack self-confidence. Sometimes, it’s hard to talk to your parents about what you’re going through—they might not “get” it. We wanted to create a platform where students feel comfortable asking for help, sharing their struggles, and finding the best solutions. A place where they can work on projects that truly matter to them, discover their passions, and get into their dream college. Not every family has access to the kind of guidance that can make a difference. That’s why we’re here: to make Ivy League mentorship accessible to everyone, no matter where they’re from. We believe every student deserves the tools and support to reach their fullest potential and actualize their dreams in this world.
