- Tracks scholarships: amount as printed, deadline, essay prompt, and what's done
- Organizes financial aid papers for the FAFSA and CSS Profile in one private folder
- Helps compare aid offers side by side, copying each number exactly from the letter
- Drafts emails to counselors, teachers (for recommendation letters), and admissions offices for your teen to send
- Includes a path for trade school, apprenticeships, the military, and jobs, not only 4-year college
- Never submits an application, never pays a fee, and never promises aid
