Used to be very good, but AI spambots ruin everything.

CollegeVine's network of universities and AI tooling is top-tier — no other platform provides this for free to students!

Good potential but immature platform with less than stellar support. IT can produce some directional results and the AI output can be helpful in generating ideas, but it seems to have some stability issues when using some of the sharing features. Deleted info and crippled the AI when attempting to share access between student and parent. Support has been almost no help to date in addressing resolution, only providing vague suggestions. I've also noticed their dates on critical submission deadlines to be IN ACCURATE (Dartmouth does not have an ED II). Lot's to clean up, but maybe something for consumers down the road.

For any future college applicants, CollegeVine is not worth it. I canceled my sessions after only 2 weeks and lost around $800. In the 2-3 sessions I did have, the only advice I got was "study more" and "make pro/con charts" from someone only 3 years older than I was. I'm writing this review because I suddenly got a spam email from CollegeVine which made me remember the ridiculous refund policy. I'm currently a student at an Ivy League that applied without CollegeVine's help and utilized friends/family/teachers, which provided much more insight than random college students.

Very helpful website. wrote a que however to understand appealinf fin aid but it was not answered.

I love using CollegeVine. As a student, it can be very hard to understand the process of college application and all other aspects. CollegeVine opened my eyes to the things that I can do which will make me more successful in the future.

The app was incredibly useful even though it was designed for me directly, I would love if they made it more inclusive of international applicants because there really is no website like that for people like me.

Great website, but please consider adding an option for “no honors class available” as well as “no AP class available.”
