HS juniors, advisors, and families: get a MAJOR head start preparing for fall college applications
A college acceptance email welcomes a student to the new class of 2030.
Korgi's free student plan for college applicants expires at the end of this month (UPDATE: we heard you –we extended it through July 31, 2025)! Per user requests, we've re-published all the schools from last year's pre-built First-Year College Applications template. Most deadlines have passed for this year, but you can review the steps, deadlines, and requirements for dozens of schools NOW—and get a major head start ahead of the fall application cycle. IMPORTANT: some links will no longer be active on the school sites.
To use the template:

Korgi adds FREE student plans for college access and success (December 12, 2024)
One of the most used features in the Korgi productivity & collaboration super-app are our pre-built boards/templates. As part of Korgi's commitment to service and impact, Korgi offers extensive pre-built boards for the college application process, including:
First-Year College Apps (2024-25): includes the application steps, links, and deadlines for dozens of U.S. colleges, including many leading private universities, state schools, HBCUs, and schools with high financial aid need met. Students can calendar deadlines, create essay docs, chat with advisors and family, and more in a single click, directly from their boards. And they can share it all with family and advisors helping them along the way. It's a simple and powerful command central for the college access experience.
FAFSA® Completion Guide: includes the steps and links for students and their families to complete the FAFSA®. Applicants and family members can easily answer the questions, upload or create necessary documents, and chat and create tasks throughout the process.
As regular decision deadlines continue to approach, Korgi is offering a FREE ACCOUNT to students to save hours of time, confusion, and inefficiency as they navigate their applications. Enjoy two boards, including at least one of the templates, integrated Google apps (including Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Contacts, and Calendar), integrated chat, and sharing – using your own apps and stored to your own Google Drive. The free Korgi College plan subscriptions last until June 2025.
Advisors, Korgi has prebuilt boards for you, too, including a launcher board where you can easily assist and engage with all your students through each step of their applications. With every student using the same template and Korgi managing sharing, you'll eliminate the stress of sifting through and acting on dozens of texts, emails, and document sharing invites. You'll still receive emails, we know!, and you'll be able to add them as tasks or to student cards in a click, right from your board. Get back the time you want and need to advise your students – and talk to us about building a custom dash for the data you need to optimize your processes, apply for grants, and share your incredible outcomes in reports.

In a recent thread, we were discussing the overwhelm of having too many apps in your productivity stack and the importance of doing audits to streamline it. I was a strategic consultant for many years in the public, private, and non-profit sectors; here's the flow I used in week one with an org, vis-a-vis tackling […]
In my first few minutes of talking strategy with a client, we'd dive into two things: 1) What is the bluest possible sky you're striving towards? and 2) What specific things did you do in the past few days to get there? They rarely can answer either question. My goal isn't to challenge or horrify […]
