Class of 2027 — and every year after
One itinerary for the whole trip.
Not just the first leg.
Applications and FAFSA today. Dorm life and choosing a major next year. Resumes and loan payoff after that. Concourse tracks all three legs — for the student flying it and the parent watching the board.
Leg 1 · Departure
What’s due right now, before anything else
Two tickets, one flight
Built for the two people actually doing this.
The student filling out the forms and the parent asking “did you submit that yet?” need different information — through all three legs of this, not just application season. Concourse splits the itinerary so both know exactly what’s theirs.
Student
- Build a college list that isn’t just your friends’ list
- Write essays that sound like you, not a thesaurus
- See every deadline in one place, not six open tabs
Parent
- Translate FAFSA and CSS Profile into plain English
- Compare aid offers side-by-side before deciding
- Know when to help — and when to step back
Terminal map
Three concourses. Every stage of the trip.
Before college, during college, after college — grouped the way the journey actually unfolds, not dumped into one giant list.

What this section is for
Three short, specific stories — one parent, one student, one counselor — do more for trust here than a wall of five-star icons. Replace each card below with a real quote once you’ve collected them.
“Placeholder — a real parent’s 40–60 word story goes here. Pull it from an email, a review, or a short interview.”— Parent, sample card
“Placeholder — a student quote about one specific thing that helped, not a general endorsement.”— Student, sample card
“Placeholder — a counselor’s perspective adds authority alongside the family voices above.”— Counselor, sample card
