August 12, 2020 — Boston, MA ­— Clark Ray, Executive Director of the District of Columbia State Athletic Association (DCSAA), and Neil Khaund, CEO of Livius, this week announced a partnership between the two organizations to bring Livius-backed test prep and college admission support to college-bound high school students at no cost to students or their families. 

“We’re excited to partner with the DCSAA to share our proven resources and make our services more widely accessible during this tumultuous period for students,” Neil Khaund said. “This global health crisis has posed so many obstacles and challenges for students and their families, but it’s also shown why our mission of delivering the industry’s best tutoring experience to as many students as possible has never been more important. Livius has a single goal here, and that’s to use these free virtual classes and resources to lighten the burden and strain families and students are currently experiencing with respect to achieving their academic goals.” 

Livius’ flagship virtual Foundations programs provide targeted insights and strategies to students seeking SAT or ACT test prep and college admission support. Test Prep Foundations provides students with the blueprint they need to succeed on the SAT or ACT through a targeted 3-step process, including a live online class, practice exam, and score improvement strategy. College Essay Foundations guides students through checking off one of the most important boxes of the application process: the college essay.

With 35 years of industry-backed tutoring and test prep methodology, Livius has built its reputation through the company’s high standard of customer service excellence and family support, as well as its demonstrated results, aiding students in achieving more than 1,000 perfect SAT and ACT scores, receiving over 2,000 Ivy League acceptances, and earning an average of $30,000 in merit-based scholarships per student.

“We’re very excited to have Livius as a new partner,” said Clark Ray, Executive Director of the DCSAA. “They will provide valuable college prep resources to all of our students in DC, including our student-athletes, and we appreciate their support.”

Foundations classes for DCSAA students are currently open and taking registrations for early fall; students who are interested in registering for a class can learn more or enroll here.
