    Posted by Philadelphia Futures on December 12, 2016

    Introducing the New Step Up to College Mobile App

    The Step Up to College mobile app provides students, families and youth-serving professionals with enriched access to key components of the Step Up to College Guide whenever and wherever needed.

    Interactive features of the mobile app include:

    • A “fit” form to help students qualitatively and quantitatively compare colleges’ academic, social and financial fit;
    • the ability to record responses to questions asked on college visits;
    • tools to help brainstorm, write a proofread college essays;
    • a college cost calculator that allows students to analyze and compare financial aid offers; and
    • the ability to track each step of the college admissions process.

    The app may be downloaded for free via the iPhone App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/step-up-to-college/id1167619655?mt=8) or Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.philadelphiafutures.stepuptocollege&hl=en).
