Go Ivy or Go Free

Go Ivy or Go Free is a podcast hosted by Andreas Stamatakis, author of the Ivy League Roadmap, that is dedicated to helping students and families navigate the process with clarity, while openly challenging the systems, incentives, and narratives that shape modern education. Beyond test scores, college essays, and acceptances, we examine how we view education—questioning incentives, power structures, and the myths that fear-monger already anxious students. Each episode offers candid conversations and practical insight for those who want to approach college intentionally, and win.
