Getting started with CollegeBinder

What to do first, and what you can safely skip.

The CollegeBinder dashboard showing upcoming deadlines.

We’re so happy you’re here! Signing in is easy and seamless. To get started:

  1. 1Enter your email. We send you a link to confirm and sign in.
  2. 2Tell us information about yourself. This includes your graduation year and state.
  3. 3Add the schools you're considering. Their own deadlines appear once you're in.

Everything else is optional. GPA, test scores, intended major, and first-generation status only exist to find you more scholarships.

You can change any of this by going to Settings.

Once you sign up, you’ll see a quick tutorial so you can get familiar. Then, you’re in!
