The Story Behind Eleva
It all started in April 2024 at the BDH (Engineers Library) at AUB. I was with my friends, struggling to build our schedules for the upcoming semester. Every website we tried had issues.
"Imagine if we could see each other's courses without constantly asking for screenshots."
"I have three econ sections with the same professor - which one should I take to be with you?"
These conversations sparked an idea: What if there was a course scheduling platform that actually understood what students need?
As a Computer and Communication Engineering student, I decided to build it myself. Even if it failed, at least I'd have a tool I actually wanted to use with my friends.
Today, seeing students across campus using Eleva proves there was a real need for this. We truly understand each other as students.
