Lily is having a great experience and a positive response to her applications. She was accepted EA at the University of Michigan which was her running first choice until she was notified last week that she was chosen for the Alumni Distinguished Scholarship at Michigan State University (a four-year full ride with some other perks!)... so unless lightning strikes twice it looks like she is going to be a Spartan. She is so excited. I think a lot of her success was attributable to Inline’s advice on how to tell her story. Thanks again for all you do!

I am a low-income first-generation student from a rural school in eastern Washington. As the firstborn to a young single mother, I grew up very aware of our financial situation and carried the burden of expecting a similar future. Even in grade school, I thought that I’d end up working in a job I didn’t like with barely enough to live on. But because of the factors mentioned above, the application process, and even just envisioning a college experience, was strenuous and seemed impossible. Luckily, my high school’s guidance counselor, Mrs. Goetz, got our principal to approve Inline for all seniors to use. Without anybody to walk me through the application process, explain certain prompts, or give me vital tips, Inline was my sole lifeline. By expanding on the questions asked in applications, tailoring feedback to specific schools, and lightening the overall experience, Inline truly made the process more pleasant and simple. I am beyond impressed with the resources I was provided and was able to apply to some of the world's most prestigious universities! In great part due to Inline, I was accepted to the University of Chicago on a full-ride scholarship, where I will be attending shortly. Coming from a kid who formerly thought that I wasn’t going to make it far in life, Inline has helped me exceed my goals, and will likely do the same for many other students.

College applications have gone amazingly well…in large part due to the support my students received from Inline. We had a QuestBridge finalist, an Ivy League acceptance, and a student who is a finalist for two full-ride scholarships to major universities...all in large part due to the support they received in their application process from Inline. This is simply unheard of in our rural community, and I am so thankful to you and to Inline for helping to break down the rural access barriers to higher education!

Inline motivated me to do my college applications earlier than I would have because I knew there would be help along the way.

Inline was extremely helpful - personally, as the oldest child in my family, I had so many questions about the Common Application and the entire college process that were answered perfectly with Inline. I'm happy to say that I will be attending Tufts University. Thanks again!

The stakes are high when completing the application. And, frankly, as a high school senior myself, the Common App can be a bit confusing. Help has arrived! A tool has launched that offers in-browser, on-demand help with the Common App, to support students while they are completing the application.​ I have found this really helpful and user friendly!
