This tool helps your student create a Top 10 starter list of colleges balanced across reach, match, and safety schools. It’s designed to help families see not only where their student might dream of applying, but also where they are most likely to be admitted. • Generates a Top 10 list of schools organized into reach, match, and safety tiers. • Provides direct official website links for each school. • Explains what reach, match, and safety mean in plain language. • Encourages families to build a balanced list instead of only aiming high. • Limit: Admissions data shifts yearly; list is a discovery starting point, not a guarantee.
• First, your student shares their GPA (or range), SAT/ACT status (or if applying test-optional), and whether they want the list reach-heavy, match-heavy, or balanced. • The assistant compares this profile with current admissions data. • It generates a Top 10 starter list organized into reach, match, and safety tiers, each with clickable links. • Families finish with a realistic framework for building a strong application list.
