Ratings and reviews

The app glitches and kicks my daughter off right after she has spent loads of time writing essays for college applications. When she logs back in all her hard work has often been erased. VERY FRUSTRATING. This app is supposed to aid in applying for universities/colleges, but has taken tons of extra time re-doing everything that has been deleted everytime it freezes and glitches...PLEASE FIX!

This I a great app. I appreciate the developers but I wish it was a little easier to upload documents like official transcripts directly from the app instead of having to do it from Gmail. Also, it keeps going back to the create account page anytime I leave the app for a few seconds. Nevertheless, this is the best app for obtaining scholarships. Thank you!

Only goes out to my browser for signing in to a transfer student account. Wanted to have a app that's easily accessible but it just goes out to my browser, not in app
