New Resource: Build a college list that actually fits you

Make smart, intentional choices about where to apply

I’m excited to share a brand-new resource: a College List Builder designed to help students make smart, intentional choices about where to apply.

This interactive Google Doc includes 4 tabs that guide you through every step of the process:

✅ Fit Factor Questionnaire – Evaluate what matters most to you (major, location, culture, weather, diversity, and more) and score your priorities.

✅ College Fit Preferences Worksheet – Define your preferences more deeply and use them to steer your research.

✅ Competitive Index – Get a sense of how your academic profile compares to what colleges expect, based on what was available at your school.

✅ School Research Guide – Pull key data from Class Profiles and the Common Data Set to assess your academic fit for each school on your list.

By the end, you’ll walk away with a clear, personalized list of colleges that align with your goals, strengths, and priorities.

I hope this tool serves you well! After you click the button below, you’ll be redirected to a Google Docs link. Click “Make a copy,” and start building your college list!
