Why we built Dear Admissions
Colleges send a lot of email, and most of it asks for a reply or a click. Keeping up with every school on your list takes time. Most students do not have that time.
What it does today
You can save your portal logins, encrypted. You can check that your email connection works. You can keep your school list and your preferences, and make campus visit plans. Replies are coming, and you will approve each one before anything is sent. Signing in to school portals for you, event registration, and tracking when emails are opened or clicked are not built yet.
How it works
Schools may look at things like admissions emails, portal visits, and event sign-ups when they judge how interested a student is. Each school decides for itself how much that matters. The engagement score is not a prediction of admission.
Your dashboard keeps your school list, your recorded activity, and your preferences in one place.
Save portal logins for accounts you own and pick your preferences. Those settings do not start anything on their own yet. Campus visit plans are reminders for you. Register with the school directly and confirm your spot before you go.
Our values
You stay in control
Your saved logins and settings are yours to change. Saving a setting never means something was done for you.
You can see everything
Your school list, connection checks, and activity are all in your dashboard. A passing connection check does not mean anything is running.
Your data stays private
Saved logins are encrypted with AES-256-GCM. We do not sell your personal data. You can revoke access at any time.
Want to look around first?
The sample dashboard uses example schools and activity, not real ones.
