We Break up the Process
MyCollegeCalendar's process is rather easy despite how complicated and often
confusing the college admission process can be. The simple idea behind MyCollegeCalendar
is to lay out, in an easy to follow step-by-step method, all the recommended
tasks needed for students and parents to get through the college admission
experience successfully. We divide these tasks into six general areas:
- College Preparation and Testing
- College Search and Selection
- College Application Process and Requirements
- Financial Aid Research and Qualifications
- College Acceptance Procedures and Follow up
- Campus Preparation and Residence Life
You Build It
Within each of the six primary task categories there are dozens of task sub-topics
a student or parent can select and import into their schedule. Now we don't expect our
users to use our entire process from beginning to end, many of our users
do and that's great, but the fact is, many users just select and use the
processes they need the most help with. So we've created a platform that
allows our users to select which aspects of the admission process they
feel they need the most assistance with. By creating user driven task manager
functionality using the Google Calendar platform, we provide our users with task options that are relevant
to them. A member's calendar and task manager is populated with those tasks
they've selected, the content related to those tasks and the timeline by
which they need to perform those tasks to be successful in the admission
process.
You Personalize It
MyCollegeCalendar's Google Calendar based platform is customizable to allow users to add their own
tasks, their own deadlines and create their own admission schedules outside
of our baseline recommended steps. This is extremely important for critical
dates a user defines and schedules, such as campus visits, admission interviews,
counselor meetings, local and regional scholarship application deadlines,
and many more important events. To provide users with the ability to add
their own critical deadlines and tasks, MyCollegeCalendar blends time-proven
admission schedules with a user's time-sensitive personal events.
You Manage It
MyCollegeCalendar's Google Calendar based platform allows users to manage and monitor their own
college admission process without the need for outside college admission
consultation and management. Our process is used by thousands of counselors
and admission consultants nationwide. Students, parents and educators can
easily see what admission requirements they need to perform, the relevant
resources on how to perform those requirements, and when to complete the
required tasks. Parents can easily see where their student is at with the
process. And because MyCollegeCalendar is based in a calendar format, the
element of procrastination is easily curbed and there is simply no excuse
for not getting the job done!
You Track It
MyCollegeCalendar's Google Calendar based platform allows users to upload college and
university due dates and deadlines into their personal calendar and task manager. This
is extremely helpful for the college specific requirements most schools have
in addition to the baseline admission processes all students and parents
must complete.
