We told you there was more coming to College Profiles, and today we’re pleased to unveil some fresh updates for all Scoir customers. Read on for the details!
We kicked off the year by giving College Profiles a redesign. We were so excited to give these pages a refreshed look for students and those who support them, like families and college counselors.
To expand upon the changes made in January (you can read about it here), you’ll notice the following enhancements:
College Profiles now include easy-to-use tags that will open a filtered search. For example: are you looking for more test-optional schools? Just give the tag a click to open a pre-filtered search.
University Highlights are high-level, fun facts about a school written by that school. Scanning this section can be a great way to grasp–in the college's own words–what's unique about them. University Highlights are now presented in a simple-to-use carousel.
It’s important to us that you find a college that fits you. So, College Profiles now include Match Details to help you identify if a college could be a match, and how that school lines up with your preferences.
Browse and identify whether a college has your intended major, as well as view detailed content about said major from that college.
When we set out to refresh College Profiles, it was our intent to make these pages as enjoyable and usable as possible. Believe us, there's still more to come. For now, we can’t wait to see how you interact with them. If you have feedback, we’d love to hear it.
