Frequently Asked Questions
Products
Do I have to be a senior to benefit from Universily?
No! In fact, Universily is more valuable the earlier you start using it to track your high school activities. By thinking about your superpower, or niche, early in your high school career you will be able to do more activities and courses that support your unique story. We encourage all high school students to start using Universily as early as possible.
Can I add my counselor and family to my Universily team?
Yes, you can add your counselor, your family, or any other trusted person to your Universily account in order to collaborate with your support network and keep them in the loop. You can also remove people from your team at any time.
How is Universily different from Naviance?
Naviance, and their competitors like SchoolLinks, are systems built for High School Counselors. The purpose of those systems is to make the job of a High School Counselor easier by doing things like securely sending transcripts or letters of recommendation to colleges, or scheduling college visit days. Students do interact with these systems, but the systems are not built for the students.
Universily is built for high school students and their families. The capabilities of Universily are engineered specifically to simplify the student’s college application journey. The student is Universily’s customer, not the other way around.
Is there a mobile version of Universily?
Yes, Universily is available on your desktop and mobile phones. The desktop version has more functionality in areas like essay editing since it can utilize larger screens.
