About us
Made by Students, for Students
As former students, we were once in your shoes applying to universities abroad. We understand the application process is complicated and stressful, but most importantly it is incredibly difficult to get credible help without paying high fees. So, Athenik was born with the goal of simplifying your university applications. Of course, we offer all our services free of charge because we believe everyone should have access to the information they need to select the right university.

David Levy
Chairman
Welcome to Athenik!
Through my personal experience as a parent, choosing a university is one of the toughest life decision one can make. This is why I started Athenik.
Athenik was created to simplify the process of applying to university. We aim to provide students with comprehensive resources and services to help them in researching, applying, up until getting accepted into their dream universities.
I carefully selected the Athenik team with a balance of fresh perspectives from recent graduates and technical expertise from industry experts to develop a platform that is both relevant and user-friendly.
Thank you for choosing Athenik and best of luck to you in your journey with us!
Jason Ho
CTO
From a young age, I have been instilled with a passion for education because my father is a Mathematics professor. I began my career in banking and later decided to further my education with another degree. While browsing through different universities, I found it extremely difficult to find the best university for me. This initial problem has led me to work with Athenik today.
Apart from my experience in banking, I have over 10 years of experience in creating platforms and websites for social media, gaming, and other industries. I’m eager to now bring my experiences to Athenik to help students through their university research and application process to find their right fit as well.

Just like every high school senior, I went through the rigorous process of researching, selecting, and applying to multiple universities. From my own experiences, I know this process can feel really difficult.
From choosing between different sources of information without knowing their trustworthiness to fill out repetitive multiple applications, all of this was quite overwhelming. As a past international student myself, I believe Athenik is the solution I wished I had when I was going through my university application process.

I really wish there had been a platform like Athenik when I was applying to universities. Personally, I made the wrong initial choice and spent a year at a university where I wasn’t happy. Fortunately, I transferred after my first year and still had an incredible university experience.
I was able to learn a lot from my own personal experience and now hope to help others follow the best path for their future. My goal with Athenik is to make sure every student has all the information they need, at their fingertips, to choose the school that’s the right for them.
