This is interesting - I particularly like the focus on connecting people to a counselor. Where did you all get the data for counselors have many been open to using something like this to discuss the college search with various students around the country?

I had the pleasure of working on Campus Steps since it began until the end of 2014. There have been many improvements since and I'm excited to see it help students this school year!

Hi All, We think that it's crucial (and about time) for all students to have equal access to quality engaging college counseling. Campus Steps is an online platform for high school counselors and students planning for college. With Campus Steps counselors can: Connect with students and view their academic resumes and college goals Quickly and easily manage and message students individually, in groups, or all at once Access a library of deliverable college counseling content With Campus Steps Students can: Create a resume with all the info they'll need to apply for college Take a college-matching quiz resulting in a tailored list of potential colleges Learn how they stack-up against other applicants Receive valuable college prep tips from our experts

Since the average high school student only gets 20 minutes of college counseling per year, there's a huge need for an easy to use tool. Most kids don't ever see their college counselor, and don't have $3000 to spend on an independent counselor.
