Monica Marroquín Rojas.
Former Ontario college admissions professional. Immigrant from Mexico. Founder of the only independent Ontario college advisory paid by families — not by colleges.
What 10 years inside Ontario college admissions teaches you.
Monica Marroquín Rojas spent over a decade working inside Ontario post-secondary admissions — reviewing applications from international students, advising on program fit, and watching the patterns that determine whether a student thrives or struggles after arriving in Canada.
That experience produced a precise understanding of what Ontario college admissions offices actually look for, what makes an application strong, what makes one weak, and — most importantly — what no college marketing department will ever tell a family about their programs.
Monica reviewed thousands of applications. She knows what a strong application looks like from the inside. She knows which programs consistently place graduates in field-related employment and which ones produce graduates who struggle to find work. She knows what the KPI data means and what it hides. She knows the questions families should be asking — and the ones nobody is asking them to ask.
That knowledge is what EXPI is built on. Not a directory. Not a commission-based referral service. A single expert who spent 10 years inside the system, now working exclusively for the families trying to navigate it from the outside.
"I kept watching families make the same preventable mistakes — choosing programs because they sounded right, applying to colleges because they were well-known, and committing to decisions before they understood what they were committing to. I built EXPI because that outcome is preventable." — Monica Marroquín Rojas
The problem Monica saw from the inside — and built EXPI to solve.
Every year, thousands of students from Latin America arrive in Ontario having made a decision that took months to prepare for and minutes to get wrong. Monica watched it happen from inside the admissions system. She built EXPI so it doesn't have to happen to your family.
Commission-based advisors
Every other service Monica observed was paid by colleges when students enrolled. That financial relationship makes honest advice structurally impossible — an advisor cannot tell you the truth about a program if their income depends on your enrolment in it.
No Spanish-first insider guidance
The few independent advisors who existed operated in English, without the cultural context that Latin American families need, and without the specific knowledge of what Ontario college programs actually produce after graduation.
EXPI fills the gap
Independent. Spanish-first. Built on 10+ years of insider admissions knowledge. Paid by families — not colleges. The only Ontario college advisory that can tell a family when Ontario is not the right choice — because there is no financial cost to saying so.
Every other service gets paid by the college when you enrol.
EXPI does not.
That structural independence is not a marketing claim. It is the reason EXPI can tell you when Ontario college is not right for your student — and the reason Monica built the service the way she did.
Earn money when you enrol. Their advice is shaped by that financial relationship — whether or not they acknowledge it.
Paid directly by families. Monica's income depends on giving you the right answer — not the answer that produces an enrolment.
