Industry-Leading Student Assignment
Avela Match simplifies the management of your student assignments and lotteries through an intuitive interface while leveraging sophisticated Nobel Prize algorithms. This cloud-hosted solution, often likened to "Tableau for Matching," allows districts and schools to design and implement equitable enrollment policies and admission lotteries with ease.
The system's dynamic waitlists, configurable lottery criteria, and powerful reporting capabilities contribute to a comprehensive and efficient student assignment process, ensuring fairness and compliance with a diverse set of student assignment policies.
Support for Various Assignment Mechanisms and Lottery Designs
Developed by Nobel Laureate Josh Angrist and Clark Medalist Parag Pathak, Avela Match boasts expertise in supporting diverse assignment mechanisms and lottery designs. From classic mechanisms like Deferred Acceptance (Gale-Shapley Algorithm) to innovative approaches such as Cumulative Offer Mechanism (COM) and Top Trading Cycles (TTC), Avela Match provides a comprehensive suite of options. The system enables transparent and auditable lottery designs, including the ability to offer families a single placement or multiple offers, prioritize students based on factors like zoning or opportunity tickets, and assign custom weights for specialized programs. These features contribute to a flexible and robust platform for equitable student assignments and admission lotteries.
Also Available as a Managed Service
In addition to Avela Match software, we also offer a fully managed match service if you'd rather leave the work to us. The Avela team will equitably assign students and teachers to schools and classrooms and manage dynamic waitlists for you.
