I'm Elijah Purcell. I'm 18. I just went through the college application process and came out with more acceptances and scholarship money than I knew what to do with. This course is everything I learned, documented, structured, and taught the way I wish someone had taught it to me.
You're in the middle of it. Whether you're just starting to think about college or finalizing your list senior year, this course meets you where you are.
Especially if you're trying to maximize scholarship money. The financial aid and scholarship modules alone cover strategies most families never hear about.
Nobody in your family has done this before. This course doesn't assume you already know how applications, financial aid, or college selection work, it starts from the beginning.
Waitlisted, deferred, or didn't get into your top choice last cycle. This course covers what actually moves the needle, and it's not what most people focus on.
Camera lessons, screen shares of my actual process, and written notes for every lesson. Total: ~3.5 hours of video.
I didn't study college admissions. I went through it. Every lesson is based on what I actually did, not what a textbook says works. The tactics are current, specific, and tested.
34 acceptances and $530k/year in scholarships aren't vague credentials. I'll show you the spreadsheet, the emails, the timelines. The data is the course.
Other courses tell you what matters. This one shows you exactly how to do it, screen shares of the actual tools, templates I built, and step-by-step walkthroughs of every major task.
Course opens when recording is complete. Join the waitlist to be first in and get the early-access price.
Waitlist members get early access pricing and first notification when the course opens.
No spam. One email when enrollment opens.
Both. The content is written so the student can follow it alone, but parents often go through it too and find the financial aid and scholarship modules especially useful. The $530k stat in the headline is for parents, they know what that means.
No. The essay modules, financial aid sections, and scholarship hunting process are immediately applicable regardless of where you are in the timeline. The earlier modules on building your list are still useful if you haven't finalized schools.
Because I just did it. 34 acceptances. $530,384 in scholarships per year. I researched 98 schools and applied to dozens. I made real mistakes and real wins and I documented everything. A 50-year-old counselor has experience — I have current, specific, documented results.
Both, but scholarships is where this course is uniquely strong. Module 5 is entirely dedicated to FAFSA, CSS Profile, and the scholarship hunting process I used to identify and apply for the opportunities that added up to $530k/year.
After you purchase, Lemon Squeezy sends you a confirmation email with a unique access code. You enter it once on the course page and your browser remembers it, no login or account needed.
Lifetime. The course content lives on this site as long as Purcell Ventures exists. You'll also get any future updates I add, new lessons, updated templates, anything I add based on student feedback.
Coaching Track gets you into monthly group calls where you can ask questions directly. It's me, live, answering your specific situation, not just pre-recorded content. The 1:1 Intensive is private hours with me: we review your personal statement, build your school list strategy together, and prep your financial aid negotiation.
Yes. If you start with Self-Paced and want to add coaching, reach out directly, the price difference applies as a credit.
