About this site
CollegePredictionMarkets.com is an independent publication covering every prediction market about US college admissions, rankings, leadership, and higher-ed policy. We track live contracts on Kalshi and Polymarket and explain how they work.
What we cover
One narrow beat: prediction markets where the underlying event is something about US higher education. Admit rates, rankings, presidential exits, federal-funding fights, legacy-admission bans, accreditation disputes. If a market exists, we list it on the markets page. If a market should exist, we put it on our watchlist.
Editorial standards
- Every claim is traceable to a public source (university release, Common Data Set, court filing, regulator filing). Stats carry a date.
- We don't run sponsored posts and partners never review content before publication. See our disclosure.
- We use real names for venues (Kalshi, Polymarket) under nominative fair use — we are not affiliated with them.
- When markets resolve, we publish a resolution post explaining what happened.
- Corrections are posted on the page they affect and noted in the change log.
How we make money
Affiliate commissions from prediction-market venues, plus (eventually) sponsored placements in the newsletter clearly marked as such. Affiliate links carry rel="sponsored nofollow" per FTC guidelines. Full detail in Affiliate & Editorial Disclosure.
What this site is not
- Not a sportsbook, not a casino, not a broker.
- Not investment, legal, or tax advice. Event contracts are speculative and can go to zero.
- Not affiliated with any university referenced on this site.
