Introducing the College Match Tool: Simplify Your College Search
At Prep Dig, we are constantly looking for more ways to add value to high school athletes and families searching for opportunities at the next level. We're excited to announce the College Match Tool, a major addition to our offerings that will help make the college search process more streamlined. The College Match Tool is now live for all Prep Dig + subscribers. It uses the information you provide in your FREE Prep Dig player profile to recommend schools that align with your unique preferences and goals. Whether you're an athlete or a parent, this tool is here to help you take control of the college recruiting journey with confidence.
How the College Match Tool Works
The College Match Tool provides data-driven recommendations based on key details you choose to share in your profile. These can include:
- Desired College Level: Select from multiple levels to see where you match best.
- Preferred Location: Narrow your options by identifying the states you're interested in.
- Academic Fit: Input your GPA and SAT or ACT scores for tailored suggestions.
- School Size Preferences: Indicate your preference for large or small campuses.
Not all these details are required to get recommendations—you can provide as much or as little as you like. The tool will still generate matches, and we're planning to add even more customization options in the future. With this information, the College Match Tool generates a list of schools, complete with a percentage value indicating how strong of a match they are for you.
How the College Match Tool Maximizes Your Recruiting Experience Alongside Other Prep Dig + Features
