About Self Made College
Self Made College is developed by ElderMe. ElderMe is a research organization studying metacognition, behavioral science, and technology.
Our research begins with a simple question:
Why do some people continue becoming while others quietly stop?
We study how people think and learn. We study how they make decisions and develop habits. We also study how they reshape their identity over time. Those insights become the foundation for every course, assessment, and learning experience at Self Made College.
The name ElderMe represents the wiser version of yourself. Not someone different. Just the person you become through a lifetime of intentional growth.
Our Mission
To help millions of people become bigger than they ever believed they could be by teaching the life skills, habits, and ways of thinking that traditional education often leaves behind.
We believe becoming a better person is a skill that can be learned, practiced, and earned.
Our Vision
We envision a world where personal growth is treated with the same importance as academic education.
A world where anyone can continue learning, continue growing, and continue becoming. This holds true regardless of age, background, or past mistakes.
Our goal is to become the world's most trusted institution for lifelong personal development.
