Matchbox helps speed the review of inbound applications at all university levels. Matchbox began at MIT Sloan in the office of Rod Garcia, the director of admissions, a few months after Apple first launched the iPad. Stephen Marcus, who was a member of the MIT Sloan admissions committee, was discussing with Rod how to simplify the admissions process, and from this conversation, Matchbox was born.
