// founder.note

Fit matters more than rankings.

I wasn't the best fit at Pomona. It's a great school, but I didn't understand its dynamics, its size, its culture, how people actually lived there, until I arrived. I wish I had known.

That's why TrueCollege starts with fit, not rankings: real conversations with people who've been there, before you commit four years.
