For Colleges: Year 1 of Apply & Year 2 Enhancements

For Colleges: Year 1 of Apply & Year 2 Enhancements
For Colleges: Year 1 of Apply and Year 2 Enhancements | Scoir
2:52

In August 2022, we introduced Apply with Scoir. It’s a new process for seamlessly applying to college, on the same platform where nearly 1 million students are already discovering careers and colleges and building their lists.

When we spoke with students, we knew this was a huge pain point we could help solve so we’re excited to share how this first year went.

We’ve seen 61,000 students apply with Scoir.

  • 30% of them are first-generation
  • 45% were eligible for fee waivers
  • 44% are students of color

This is huge. We’ve loved creating a new experience that helps students who need it the most. 118 colleges accepted the app in year 1.

This year, we expect that number to grow even more! The great part is that these colleges receive more than 10% of all apps every year so when students apply with Scoir, they avoid duplicative data entry and keep everything in one spot.

As we head into year 2, we’re excited about the changes we have planned for everyone in the process, including application-receiving colleges.

Up first, updates to Colleges' configuration experiences.

Additional fee waivers

Before, colleges could only configure one fee waiver eligibility criteria, Military Status, indicating whether a student was active duty military or a veteran.

Now, colleges can configure 6 additional fee waiver eligibility.

Screenshot 2023-05-12 at 3.38.03 PM

Here’s the full list:

  1. Students who qualify for Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program
  2. Students who have received a College Board, ACT, and/or NACAC fee waiver
  3. Students who are participating in TRiO programs
  4. Students who receive a Pell Grant
  5. Students who are veterans or active members of the U.S. Armed Forces
  6. Students who self-identify as the first in their family to attend college
  7. Students whose family receives public assistance
  8. Students enrolled in a federal, state, or local program that aids students from low-income families
  9. Students who live in federally subsidized public housing, a foster home or are homeless
  10. Students who are a ward of the state or an orphan
  11. Students who receive need-based scholarships elsewhere
  12. Students who are being assisted by any college or university access program

 

Expanded Application Profile PDFs

In addition, colleges can also decide whether they’d like to receive Race and Ethnicity details in Application Profile PDFs, and if they opt to collect Additional Tests and/or English Proficiency Tests, colleges can add provide extra context to applicants.

We’re excited about these changes, especially the expansion of fee waiver eligibility criteria, which allows you to better reach the students who need help the most.
