Zinch has a simple goal: to level the college admissions playing field and provide a means by which individuality and greatness can be extracted from everyone during the admissions process. Zinch aims to give every student an equal opportunity to say, â€œThis is me. Love me, hate me, recruit me, or trash me. This is who I am.â€

Students place their profiles on Zinch (with an emphasis on the non-transcript stuff that schools try so hard to uncover for best matching), and the colleges search for them, rather than vice-versa.
