Pathway Ahead is for students 13 and older. How a parent or guardian is involved depends on the student's age.
Students 13 to 15
A parent or guardian has to approve the account. When your teen signs up, they enter your name and email, and we send you an approval request that explains what Pathway Ahead collects and how it's used.
- Open the email from Pathway Ahead and read what the app collects.
- Tick "I agree to the Terms and Privacy Policy" and approve, or decline.
- Get the app and sign in as a parent with the same email to see your teen's plan.
Until you approve, the account stays pending. If no one approves it within 14 days, or you decline, we delete the account and everything in it.
Students 16 and 17
Students 16 and 17 can use Pathway Ahead on their own and can buy Pro themselves. They can choose to share their plan with a parent, and they can stop sharing at any time.
What a linked parent sees
- Your student's career matches, plan and chosen path
- Cost estimates, saved scholarships, tracked applications and deadlines
You don't see your student's individual assessment answers, scholarship profile or Coach drafts.
Your choices
- See what we have about your teen, or ask us to delete it, from the parent view in the app, the link in the approval email, or by emailing privacy@colosimoventures.com.
- Withdraw approval for a 13- to 15-year-old at any time. That deletes their account and everything in it.
- Parents can sign up first and invite their teen with a family code.
What we never do
We never sell student or parent information, never show ads, never share information for advertising, and never use it to train AI. Family income and any background picked for scholarship matching stay on the phone. We never receive them.
