Parents
We know applying to college can feel overwhelming. We’re here to help!
Applying Coalition
Our streamlined application process, made possible via our partnership with Scoir, helps students manage more of the college admissions process – from search to application to enrollment – in one place.
Highlights of our application method
-
We believe the cost of applying should never hold a student back.
-
Students can invite their parents to connect with them on Scoir to research schools, review the student’s college list and make suggestions for additional colleges to consider.
-
When your student invites you to connect with them on Scoir, you can create your own account and use the Scoir cost calculator to better understand the cost of each college beyond the sticker price.
-
Coalition member schools must meet our eligibility requirements related to graduating students on time and low or no debt, so you and your student can feel confident you’re applying to smart college choices.
We’re more than an application.
