What we
Provide

The Applicate™ Platform (aka Applic8™) is designed from the ground up to be online, self-serve, and data-driven. We focus on the counselor, student, AND parent experiences!

Our technology is bespoke to the college counseling landscape, not force-fit from existing CMS or EMS systems. Everything was designed and built specifically with college counseling and admissions in mind. Our founder’s background in web product development combined with educational technology and his own counseling experiences, merge to create an optimal Applicate™ Platform experience for counselors, students, and parents.

The Applicate™ Platform (aka Applic8™) is designed to provide educational and academic support services focused on counseling, guidance, and admissions consulting services to students and parents researching and preparing to apply to and enroll in US summer programs and 4-year universities. We provide an interactive database and platform featuring information on admissions, courses, colleges, educational programs, volunteer and research opportunities with the goal of applying to and attending colleges and universities in the US.

Applic8™ assists students in this by providing a student portal for all of their digital artifacts to facilitate and streamline guidance and counseling based on the student’s goals and needs. The goal is to make the collection, curation, assembly, and submission of all application assets simple, understandable, and easy, from recommendation letters and resumes, to submitting inquiries and application forms, to conducting in-person or video interviews or submitting video introductions, Applic8™ helps with all of it.

We also are committed to helping our community. Every year, we select a few students without access to resources like this as pro bono work.
