We work only for you
No college pays us to put its name in front of you. Your list is ranked by fit with your grades, goals and budget, and nothing else.
Your profile
Your answers shape your college matches and what your counselor knows about you. They're saved in this browser.
Counselor chats send your profile and messages to our AI provider to write each reply. When you talk to your counselor, your browser's built-in speech recognition turns your voice into text, which can send the audio to your browser's maker (such as Google, Apple or Microsoft).

What makes us different
A counselor who pushes back
It questions weak reasons, flags a list that's all reaches, and coaches your essays without ever writing them for you.
Cost is part of every match
Each school shows its yearly price against your family's budget, and whether it meets full financial need, before you fall for it.
Straight answers on your chances
We tell you when a school is a long shot. Anywhere that admits under 12% is a reach for everyone, so we say so.

How we rank colleges
Likely: your grades and scores are above most admitted students. Target: you're similar to them. Reach: you're below most admitted students, or the college admits fewer than 12% of applicants.
Order within each group. Each college gets a match score: how well it fits what you told us (majors, region, size, setting, cost) plus how strong it is (graduation rate, graduates' pay, test scores). Higher match comes first.
Match isn't your chance of getting in. That's the colored "Chance" label on each college: High, Medium or Low.
Your likely colleges are ones worth attending. Colleges far below your level move down, so the first likelies you see are places you'd actually be happy to go, not just ones you'd easily get into.

$29.99/month or $299/year
Admit rates, SAT ranges, average GPAs and costs are approximate figures from recent admission cycles. Cost is per year before aid. Middle 50% means a quarter of enrolled students scored below the range and a quarter above it. Confirm requirements and deadlines on each college's site. Schools admitting under 12% are a reach for every applicant.
