Amesite Launches Explorer Seminars to Connect Top Faculty with Outstanding High School Students

DETROIT, MI / ACCESSWIRE / May 21, 2024 / Amesite Inc. (NASDAQ:AMST) , a leading artificial intelligence software company offering a cloud-based learning platform for business and education markets, announced today the availability of Amesite Explorer Seminars, offering students direct engagement with distinguished faculty from the nation's top universities and colleges. These seminars provide mentorship in creating timely, original work addressing today's most pressing societal issues. Participants not only gain invaluable insights and support but also build significant relationships with educators that enhance their college admissions.

Delivered on Amesite's cutting-edge tech platform, boasting a 96-98% retention rate for all learners and 100% retention for K-12 learners, the Explorer Seminars leverage AI to streamline administrative tasks for faculty, allowing them to focus on meaningful engagement. The deliberate use of AI by both students and faculty fosters transparency and advancement, empowering students with the most advanced tools to create original work and succeed academically.

According to Business Insider in 2024, college admissions have become increasingly competitive, with application volumes rising 30%, from 5.4 million in 2019 to 7 million in 2022 and acceptance rates at top universities like Harvard plummeting to historic lows of 3.19%, making it necessary for top students to find new and creative ways to stand out. Flagship state school admissions have also dramatically declined, creating a competitive environment that has changed dramatically for this generation of high school students. For example, at the University of Michigan, admissions have declined from around 55% in 2000 to under 18% in 2023.

Ted Spencer, 30-year Head of Admissions, University of Michigan, and Advisor to the Harvard University Summer Programs and Amesite Inc., said "The Amesite Explorer Seminars are a way for students to differentiate themselves in college applications. With emphasis on test scores declining, and the competition for admissions higher than ever, an evaluation from an outstanding faculty member can make the difference in a successful application to a competitive college or university."

Amesite CEO Dr. Ann Marie Sastry said, "Focusing on the most cutting-edge subjects and leveraging the latest technology, our seminars create an unparalleled learning experience. We are committed to excellence in learning in all sectors, benefiting students, expanding the impact of faculty and driving shareholder value by delivering innovative and in-demand educational solutions on our tech."
