Review a student's college list

What this does

Explains where to find information about a student's college list today — there is not yet a dedicated page showing a student's live shortlist to counselors.

Before you begin

  • Open the student's profile.

Check the activity feed

Recent student activity — including updates to a student's college shortlist — surfaces in your dashboard's activity feed.

Check the student's notes

Counselors reviewing a student's college list today typically do so by writing and reading notes on the student's profile — for example, logging that a list has too many schools, or is missing safety options, after a conversation with the student.

Talk to the student directly

Since there's no live synced view yet, the most reliable source of truth is asking the student to walk you through their shortlist, or reviewing what they've told Addie in a conversation.

What happens next

  • This is a starting point until a dedicated counselor-facing view of a student's college list ships.
  • Continue logging what you learn in the student's notes so the context isn't lost between meetings.

I can't find any college list information for a student

  • Check the activity feed for a recent update.
  • Check the student's notes for a prior review.
  • If neither has anything, ask the student directly — they may not have started a shortlist yet.
  • Save counselor notes
