about this project

Admit Journey helps students navigate the college admissions process with personalized guidance and confidence. The goal was to create a modern, trustworthy, and student-focused product that simplifies complex information and makes the admissions journey feel clear, approachable, and easy to navigate.

College admissions can involve countless decisions, deadlines, requirements, and uncertainties. The challenge was to transform that complexity into an experience that feels straightforward and reassuring.

Four design challenges shaped the work: simplify admissions information so it is easy to scan, build trust through a polished visual language that never feels overly corporate, guide the visitor with a clear hierarchy from discovery to action, and speak to students while remaining professional for parents and families.

The project runs past the marketing site into the product itself. The college readiness quiz walks a student through twelve questions across academic profile, college strategy, execution readiness, and timing, then returns a scored readiness result with their strengths, their biggest gaps, and what each section means. Behind the login, a clean, intuitive dashboard gives students a centralized space to track their progress, access guidance, and manage their admissions journey across schools, applications, essays, recommendations, timeline, and scholarships.

The AdmitJourney palette pairs Sunset Blaze orange with Midnight Slate navy for clarity, trust, and growth, set in Manrope for headings and Inter for body copy. The marketing page runs from the readiness assessment through How It Works and What's Included to two one-time plans at $499 and $699.
