About Spike
A great counselor, for every student.
Private counselors cost thousands of dollars. Spike gives every high school student one that knows admissions and is there whenever they need it.
At most high schools, one counselor looks after hundreds of students. A few families hire a private consultant. Everyone else figures it out alone, across spreadsheets, group chats and late nights.
Spike is for everyone else. You talk it through, and Spike helps you pick your colleges, find scholarships and programs, write your essays and hit every deadline.
Spike is built by MKG Software.
The product works for the student. Colleges don’t pay Spike to be recommended.
Principles
Three promises.
Built for students
Spike works for you, not for colleges. Your profile never goes into a recruiting funnel.
Honest about chances
No guarantees and no made-up percentages. Spike tells you what it sees and what would help.
Your words stay yours
Spike coaches your essays line by line. It never writes them for you.
The founder
Who’s building Spike.
Spike is founded by Mustafa Kemal Gurbanov. He’s building the college guidance he wished every student had: honest, specific and there when the next decision gets hard.
