Nehan Hossain is a high school student in Bothell, Washington, and the founder of Atlas of Opportunity.

§ Quotes you can use
  • "The information you need to do real research should not depend on whether your parents went to college, or whether your school has a counselor with bandwidth."
    — Nehan Hossain, founder
  • "We don't sell anything, we don't take referral fees, and we won't list a program that charges thousands without need-based aid. Trust is the whole product."
