Counselor & Advisor Resource Hub

“I so appreciate the opportunity to share Appily with my students. They are largely first generation, low income kids who do wonders when I expose them to the possibilities after high school. Thanks for putting together a platform that encourages them to keep going.”

“We've used Appily Match before, especially for our students who are a bit more unsure about where they want to apply or where they want to be or go. Match is really cool because students put their information out there and colleges are essentially saying we want you. That adds a different layer to the process and engages our students who are maybe a little less interested or truly don't know what they want.”

“We start working with students in 7th grade, so we're able to get them started on their profiles early. I use the College List Builder the most because it allows us to get the ball rolling on scholarships and financial aid. Kids want to go to their dream school and need to understand how they can afford it. I also like the Virtual Tours because it's easy to just click a link and start touring a campus.”

“I'm the only College and Career Counselor at a high school of over 4,000 students. Most of my students want a list right away, so Appily is wonderful. The profile takes like a minute to complete and then they can start adding to their college lists. I love that they can also look at scholarships and just click the heart on the ones they're interested in. Appily is very tech savvy, and the young people are all about tech today.”

“Appily is a really comprehensive website, and it seems to be evolving. It's one-stop shop for all students for college, career, and scholarship, and I think that's what students are looking for. They don't want to jump from website to website to website. Appily makes it very easy and convenient for students.”

“Appily is one of my favorite sites. I would say it's in my top 5, if not even my top 3 as far as resources for students and families. The fact that students can input their information and get feedback on their chances of being admitted and recommendations for scholarships is really helpful. Plus, there’s the College Major Quiz. I like using that information to help students narrow things down. Appily also has some great resources for counselors.”

“I really like the college match aspect of Appily. We're always looking for new ways to help a student figure out where they want to go. I have my list of places, most of which are local or where we've had a lot of Lynnfield kids go. I always want to give kids a good depth and breadth of options and get them to think outside the box, so the college matches have been really helpful for me.”
