<p>/PRNewswire/ -- Nerd Apply，一个以隐私为首的以结果为导向的大学咨询平台，今天宣布任命 Erwin Hesse, Ed.D. 为首任影响力总监。在这个角色中，Hesse 将作为 Nerd Apply 使命的内部倡导者和外部发声者，扩大与学区、高等教育机构和政策制定者的合作关系；推动立法工作；并将 Nerd Apply 定位为如何利用其招生数据在大规模上改变结果的权威。</p>
<p>Hesse 拥有超过 15 年的高等教育招生系统各个层面的工作经验，担任过从实践者、机构领导、政策架构师到该领域的出版声音等多种角色。最近，他担任 NACAC 大学招生创新中心的首任主任，领导重新设计申请过程本身的结构和假设的工作。他还共同创建并推动通过了马里兰州第 324 号参议院法案，建立了该州的直接录取制度，这是美国首批此类法律之一。</p>
<p>Hesse 还共同创办了 Admissions Gambit，这是一项教育辅导服务，将付费大学咨询与为第一代低收入学生提供的免费辅导相结合——这体现了他对信息不对称而非学生能力决定大多数招生结果的信念。在 2023 年，他被奥巴马总统选为首批 100 位奥巴马美国领导者之一，完成了为期六个月的基于价值观的领导力项目，并于当年 11 月在芝加哥与奥巴马总统会面。在 Nerd Apply，他将通过研究合作、立法倡导和全国会议代表等方式，继续推动这一信念，助力公司成为大学招生数据的权威。</p>
<p>“我在招生的两面都见过大学招生过程是什么样的，曾在招生部门工作了十年，过去五年作为独立教育顾问，” Nerd Apply 影响力总监 Erwin Hesse 说。“学生在决定是否将成绩发送给测试可选的大学时感到困扰，需要在不到两句话中塑造一个论文主题并描述多个课外活动；而且看不到之前成功或不成功的申请。Nerd Apply 通过呈现真实的申请结果作为共享见解，改变了这一点，让顾问和他们所服务的社区对成功的真实样貌有了更清晰的认识。”</p>
<p>他的任命反映了 Nerd Apply 将其技术基础设施与改善学生招生结果所需的机构信誉和实地专业知识相结合的承诺。随着平台在全国范围内的扩展，现在已获得超过 1000 名顾问的信任，并拥有超过 25 万份真实申请，Hesse 将帮助将这些数据转化为对最有可能受益的社区的可衡量影响。</p>
<p>“Erwin 在改善教育系统方面度过了他的职业生涯，我们非常自豪我们的使命是他选择在职业生涯下一章节中投入的事业，” Nerd Apply 的联合创始人 Braden 和 Cooper Weissman 说。“他从各个角度看过这个行业——在机构内部、政策内部、咨询室内部，他相信我们正在构建的东西可以真正产生影响。来自一位有权保持怀疑态度的专业人士的这种信念，对我们来说意义重大。”</p>
<p>在 NACAC 工作之前，Hesse 曾在亚马逊、乔治城大学、约翰霍普金斯大学和马里兰大学担任高级领导职务。他拥有约翰霍普金斯大学的教育学博士学位、巴尔的摩大学的公共管理硕士学位和马里兰大学的犯罪学学士学位。他在约翰霍普金斯教育学院的国家顾问委员会任职，并因其在招生咨询方面的工作获得了 2022 年 NewSchools 风险投资基金的资助。</p>

<p>, /PRNewswire/ -- Nerd Apply, a privacy-first platform for outcome-driven college counseling, today announced the appointment of Erwin Hesse, Ed.D. as its inaugural Director of Impact. In this role, Hesse will serve as the internal champion and the external voice of Nerd Apply's mission, expanding partnerships with school districts, higher education institutions, and policymakers; advancing legislative efforts; and positioning Nerd Apply as the definitive authority on how its admissions data can change outcomes at scale.</p>

</div><p>Hesse brings more than 15 years of experience working across every layer of the higher education admissions system, as a practitioner, an institutional leader, a policy architect, and a published voice in the field. Most recently, he served as the inaugural director of NACAC's Center for Innovation in College Admission, where he led efforts to redesign the structures and assumptions underlying the application process itself. He also co-created and helped pass Maryland Senate Bill 324, establishing Direct Admission in the state, one of the first laws of its kind in the country.</p>

</div><p>Hesse also co-founded Admissions Gambit, an educational coaching service that pairs paid college counseling with free coaching for first-generation, low-income students – an expression of his conviction that information asymmetry, not student ability, is what determines most admissions outcomes. In 2023, he was selected by President Obama as one of the inaugural 100 Obama USA Leaders, completing a six-month values-based leadership program and meeting with President Obama in Chicago that November. At Nerd Apply, he will bring that same conviction to bear through research partnerships, legislative advocacy, and national conference representation as the company builds toward becoming the definitive data authority in college admissions.</p>

</div><p>&#34;I have seen what the college admissions process looks like on both sides of the desk, having worked for a decade inside admissions, and the last five years as an independent educational consultant,&#34; said Erwin Hesse, Director of Impact at Nerd Apply. &#34;Students are burdened in deciding whether to send their scores to colleges that are test-optional, shaping an essay topic and describing multiple extracurriculars in under two sentences; all while not seeing previously successful or unsuccessful applications to those same colleges. Nerd Apply changes that by surfacing real application outcomes as shared insights, giving counselors and the communities they serve a clearer picture of what success actually looks like.&#34;</p>

</div><p>His appointment reflects Nerd Apply's commitment to pairing its technology infrastructure with the institutional credibility and on-the-ground expertise required to improve student admissions outcomes at scale. As the platform expands its national footprint, now trusted by more than 1000+ counselors and powered by over a quarter million real applications, Hesse will help translate that data into measurable impact for the communities that stand to benefit most.</p>

</div><p>&#34;Erwin has spent his career working to improve the education system, and we are extremely proud that our mission is the one he's chosen to spend the next chapter of his career on,&#34; said Braden and Cooper Weissman, Co-Founders of Nerd Apply. &#34;He has seen this industry from every vantage point – inside institutions, inside policy, inside the counseling room, and he believes what we're building can actually make an impact. That kind of belief from a professional who has earned the right to be skeptical, means everything to us.&#34;</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“Erwin 在改善教育系统方面度过了他的职业生涯，我们非常自豪我们的使命是他选择在职业生涯下一章节中投入的事业，” Nerd Apply 的联合创始人 Braden 和 Cooper Weissman 说。“他从各个角度看过这个行业——在机构内部、政策内部、咨询室内部，他相信我们正在构建的东西可以真正产生影响。来自一位有权保持怀疑态度的专业人士的这种信念，对我们来说意义重大。”</p>
</div><p>Prior to his work at NACAC, Hesse held senior leadership roles at Amazon, Georgetown University, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Maryland. He holds a doctorate in education from Johns Hopkins University, a master's degree in public administration from the University of Baltimore, and a bachelor's degree in criminology from the University of Maryland. He serves on the National Advisory Council for Johns Hopkins School of Education and received a 2022 NewSchools Venture Fund grant for his work in admission consulting.</p>
