Proven Track Record -
Used by the Pros
ApplyWise is an online, interactive organizational
tool and learning program that gives you and
your student everything you both need to master
the college admissions process.

Using ApplyWise, your student will learn how to
choose which schools are best for them. In 2008,
over 90% of students using the ApplyWise process got into one of their "Top 3."

The ApplyWise process has been used for over
10 years by the counselors at IvyWise, respected
leaders in admissions counseling and developers
of the program. ApplyWise is also used by high
school guidance counselors, certified college
planners and independent counselors to
supplement their own efforts.

Get What You Both Need for a Winning College Application
You'll both get updates on the latest news and
trends in admissions. Plus, your student will get interactive games and advice-filled videos on
writing essays and more from former admissions officers, financial aid officers, deans and other experts. The ApplyWise program consists of
twelve modules, each 30-45 minutes long, that
will teach your son or daughter:

How to build an activity resume that
shows your student at their best
Which admissions requirements are
really required
Why not all college essays are right for
all schools
The best people to ask for letters of recommendation — and the worst
How to complete the university application without either of you losing your mind
And much, much more...

Take Control of the Process
ApplyWise gives your student a powerful,
easy-to-use organizing and scheduling tool to
take control of the application process. As a
parent, you can log in to your personalized home page to keep track of your student's progress without having to ask or nag. Parental
Notifications keep you informed but let your
student control their level of privacy.

Getting Started Is Easy!
The sooner they start, the more value you'll both get from ApplyWise. Either way, the competition is heating up — you can't afford to wait any longer.

The Affordable Alternative
to Private Counselors
You're discovering that just getting into college is expensive. College applications, test prep classes
and testing fees all add up. Throw in the cost of college consulting and it can be overwhelming.

But at just $299 for unlimited access to the
12-module program, 2 years of ApplyWise
costs less than 2 hours with a private
counselor. And with ApplyWise, your student can use the modules over and over, as often as they want, until the end of high school.

"It's not just about grades and test scores. The ApplyWise program provides a clearly presented format for students and parents to put together
all the pieces of the application process for a successful admissions outcome — the advice
is exceptionally informative and helpful. Students, parents and counselors should welcome and make full use of this valuable tool."
