About StudyPoint
StudyPoint's founders had a simple idea: to create a better alternative to impersonal learning centers. Early on, the company invested heavily in curriculum development and training standards, so that its tutors could deliver consistent and reliable academic and test prep results to families. As the company grew, it added additional services and programs, ranging from individualized needs assessments to innovative online homework tools.
In April 2026, StudyPoint was acquired by Intrax, a global organization that provides high-quality educational, work, travel, and volunteer programs that connect people and cultures and prepare students to become global citizens. Joining the Intrax family of brands has presented incredible new opportunities for StudyPoint to expand our reach, deepen our impact, and deliver even better outcomes for students, families, and schools worldwide.
Throughout the years, StudyPoint has earned numerous awards for its exceptional growth (Inc 500/5000 nine times, BBJ Pacesetters three times) and its progressive work-environment (50 Most Engaged Workplaces two times). We're a values-driven workplace that delivers exceptional educational programs to our students, and in our over two decades of operations we've helped over 60,000 students find confidence and success on the path to college.
