University graduates experience the highest employment growth of any educational attainment group over the last decade. However, the high cost of university education puts most students in significant debt. Prophesy uses Open Data to predict and assess young Canadians' financial health in the early stages of their careers. This allows young Canadians and their parents to gain insights into their future and plan ahead. We estimate cost of going to university by analyzing historical trends on rent, tuition and consumer price index across over 160 cities in the country. We also make personalized recommendations around loans and predict early career income based on field of study. Prophesy compares results to national averages and delivers the appropriate recommendations.

Ultimately, Prophesy promotes early planning for education and employment to enhance the global competitiveness of our nation.

Prophesy is a responsive web application. While the majority of testing was done in Chrome on the desktop, the application also renders nicely on tablets and smart phones.
