Welcome back! We hope you had a restful summer. As we head into the new school year, we’re here to make sure you're up to speed on everything that changed over the break.

We’ve released several updates over the summer to strengthen forms and improve your experience. Here’s a quick recap of what’s been released and what’s coming soon.

Let's dive in.

What's New ✨

For Counselors

More Settings for Scheduling Visit Availability

Now, when setting availability for college visits, you can choose the visit type—in person, virtual, or let colleges decide (college choice). Plus, if you're hosting multiple schools at once, you can tag it as a college fair so it’s clear to everyone signing up.
