Outlier Education

We are a group of people who have set out to create the world’s best for-credit university-level online courses, and offer them at a fraction of the cost of what’s currently available. Many of us have or had student debt ourselves, or wish we had better educational access growing up. Our founder & CEO, Aaron Rasmussen (co-founder of MasterClass), transferred community college courses into Boston University to make his degrees more affordable—and his experiences during that time planted the seeds for what would eventually become Outlier.
