With more and more students, non-profit universities and colleges looking online for opportunities to earn and deliver degrees, 2U Inc. had a vision of providing an efficient, cloud-based software platform to bridge the gap between students and institutions offering higher learning.

This record is used to take the student through from admissions all the way to their eventual graduation and career placement, keeping everything in one place.
