High School Counselor
Recommendation context
Brag sheet, academic résumé, student context and approved counselor-view information.
Better student reflection.
Stronger counselor context. More purposeful academic planning.
My College Activities helps students organize the information high school counselors need for meaningful counseling and recommendation writing while giving academic advisors the course information needed for focused schedule planning.
Academic Advisor
Course planning
Academic direction, intended interests and course-planning information for schedule decisions.
Students control what each role can see.
Give counselors the context to write stronger recommendations.
Your school counselor can see your brag sheet, academic résumé, academic information, counselor context, and class schedule, all organized and ready when they need it. With the right information in front of them, counselors can prepare a more detailed recommendation and help you plan.

Course planning connected to the student’s intended direction.

Organized information for a more informed recommendation.
Students may choose to share their brag sheet and academic résumé with teachers or other recommenders, providing organized context about their experiences and accomplishments.
What the recommender receives
- Student brag sheet
- Academic résumé
These materials are available only when the student chooses to share them.
How it helps
The recommender gains organized context about the student’s experiences, contributions and accomplishments.
Recommenders receive only the materials the student chooses to
share. They do not receive the school counselor view or the
independent counselor’s complete view.
Each school role receives the information appropriate to its responsibility.
