How to Organize Yourself during the College Admission Process

Applying to College
1

Hi,

I’d like to know how other people organize themselves during the college admissions (and financial aid and scholarships) process. I’ve kept a Google Doc summarizing any scholarships I’ve applied to, the colleges I’m applying to (and their supplements), my extracurriculars, etc. I also keep a to do list and a calendar with deadlines (also because my school’s counseling office has it’s own set of deadlines for various things).

What other tools do people use to keep themselves organized during the college admissions process?

I’ve made a doc or two that has all the colleges listed that I’m applying to, their essay completion status, deadlines, etc. I also have a to do list. So pretty much identical to what you do.
