College applications are complicated. Your plan doesn't have to be.
College App Planner turns an overwhelming application process into clear, manageable next steps — with real college counselors just a message away.
Too many deadlines
Every school has different requirements, dates, and forms — and it all lives in different places.
Task paralysis
When everything feels equally urgent, it's hard to know where to start — so nothing gets started.
Family friction
Constant reminders lead to arguments, guilt, and a strained senior year for everyone at home.
More than a generic productivity app
This isn't your standard college application planner. It was designed by veteran educators who work directly with neurodivergent and overwhelmed teens — and know the executive-function supports students actually need.

See your progress

Keep parents informed
With the student’s permission, automated emails notify parents when key tasks are completed—reducing check-ins, stress, and conflict at home.
Real counselors, real answers
Message a real college counselor whenever a student feels stuck — no bots, no scripted replies.
Students aren't left to figure it out alone.
Real college counselors are always just a message away. Students can send a question whenever they feel confused, stuck, or unsure about what to do next — and receive thoughtful support from an experienced human, not an automated response from a bot.
And with permission, parents can receive automated milestone updates — supporting accountability while letting students take ownership. Fewer reminders, less stress, fewer college-related conflicts at home.
