What Parents Are Saying

“

“I uploaded my daughter’s transcript and within minutes had a personalized list of schools I hadn’t even considered. The admission odds gave us a realistic picture of where she stands — it completely changed how we’re approaching her college search.”

— Leah, McLean, VA

“

“We’re just starting the process of looking at colleges for our sophomore daughter. This tool narrowed it down fast and let us search any school to see her chances. It’s like having a college counselor on demand.”

— Christian, Roslyn, NY

“

“Our oldest is only in 7th grade, but we wanted to get ahead of the college conversation early. Running an analysis gave us a sense of what to focus on now so there are no surprises later. Wish this existed when I was applying to schools.”

— Matt, Falls Church, VA

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to get started?

Just select your state and high school from our dropdown, then upload your student’s transcript as a PDF. For the best results, you can also upload your school’s profile — it helps the AI analyze course offerings in more detail. Test scores are optional but improve accuracy.

How accurate are the admission odds?

Our odds are based on College Scorecard data, adjusted for your student’s GPA, test scores, course rigor, and extracurriculars. They’re estimates, not guarantees — similar to what a college counselor would provide.

Is my data secure?

Your documents are processed securely and are never stored or shared. We don’t keep copies of transcripts or school profiles.

Do you replace a college counselor?

No — we complement your counselor’s advice with data-driven insights. Think of this as a second opinion backed by admissions data.

Pro gives you full access to the Application Tracker, Scholarship Finder, Financial Aid Explorer, Essay Workspace with AI coaching, and more. Track deadlines and documents for every school you’re applying to, browse 310+ scholarships filtered by state and category, and compare financial aid packages across schools — all from one dashboard. Pro is $24.99/month or $249/year.
