Connecting With The Students & Communities Who Need Us Most

Over the past 10 years, the United States has seen an alarming exodus of students. With one of the highest student loan debts globally and tuition rate higher than that that of previous years, families are feeling the impact of paying for school. Students have transitioned to trade schools, started careers that do not require degrees or just did not see the value in the piece of paper known as a degree. We are providing a service for students that could possibly impact the educational landscape and need to get the message out. We have a social media presence on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and others, but need to maximize our ability to engage and connect with users that will leverage our platform. We are looking to organically gain a total of 10K active followers across all of our social media platform by Q1/Q2 of 2023

Lite Tuition is looking for underlining characteristics and educational outcomes of families who are either underbanked or unbanked. We want to identify why they choose to not utilize the financial institutions and what adverse affects their decisions place on them. Most importantly, we want to analyze their educational journey and how either being unbanked or underbanked impacted them. Similarly, what areas or communities tend to fall into the highest category of being unbanked or underbanked in the United States.
