Moneyball Meets Admissions

Our Approach

EliteEdge’s “asset inventory” approach does for admissions what Moneyball did for baseball, applying rigorous analytics and game theory to a field historically dominated by anecdote. We believe in taking power back from colleges and putting it into the hands of students and families, where it belongs.

Our Story

Kyle’s industry leading approach is now available through EliteEdge Advisors.

Kyle
Graham

Since introducing his game-changing approach in 2012, Kyle has had record-breaking success at each school where he has worked (Marymount High School, Harvard-Westlake, Poly Prep). Most recently, at Poly Prep, Kyle’s statistical analysis and optimization of individual application strategy led to 5 consecutive years of all-time record college outcomes. After his first year implementing this method, nearly twice as many seniors gained admission to their first choice school as any time on record.
