Tilak Mishra
Founder & CEO, EpicQuest Learning · UPenn Alum
Every student deserves a structured, expert-guided path to showcase their true potential. EpicQuest is that path.
I built EpicQuest because I saw brilliant students being turned away from their dream universities — not because they lacked talent, but because they lacked the right experiences.
Having navigated the competitive landscape of top-tier education at an Ivy League, I'm passionate about democratizing access to the tools and strategies that truly differentiate applicants. My vision is to empower the next generation of innovators and leaders to confidently pursue their highest academic aspirations, leaving a lasting mark on the world.
Beyond Grades —
A Unique Approach
Ivy League committees look for depth, originality, and demonstrated impact. We build all three through a structured, multi-year journey.
Applied Research
Students conduct original, publishable research in their chosen field, guided by expert mentors — IIT scientists or Ivy League-trained industry practitioners — and aligned to their psychometric profiles.
Prototype Development
From idea to working prototype — students learn to solve real problems with tangible, demonstrable solutions that tell a compelling story.
Policy Drafting
Published policy drafts on social, environmental, or technological issues — showcasing civic engagement and analytical rigour that admissions committees notice.
