About Us

Our Vision: At ScholarlyConnect, we envision a world where transitioning from high school to university is a seamless, supported journey. Founded by Amirhossein Soheili from York University and Amin Hasheminia from Queen’s University, our initiative is dedicated to demystifying and simplifying the higher education admissions process for high school students.

Our Mission: We strive to equip students with the knowledge, guidance, and support they need during one of the most critical phases of their academic journey. Our unique peer-support model focuses on personalized mentorship, connecting high school students with university mentors who have recently navigated the same path.

Our Approach:

Comprehensive Admissions Support: From OUAC applications to scholarships and extracurricular advice, our mentors are here to guide every step of the way.

Mentor-Mentee Pairing: Building meaningful connections based on shared experiences and academic goals.

Expanding Reach: Initially partnering with four universities and a select number of high schools, we aim to broaden our impact over time.
