Volume 1, Issue 5: Connect With Others on Applyful
Happy Thanksgivukkah! We're thankful for the thousands of families, high schools and non-profits who have used Applyful to discover, collect and share college knowledge. In return, we're thrilled to bring in the holiday season by delivering the most requested feature on our roadmap: Connecting with others. But before we get into that, let's take a quick stroll down memory lane.

September 2013: Learn Everything You Need to Know About a College
Since our launch in September, our team has been helping thousands of families prepare for college. Starting with enabling students to discover everything there is to know about colleges in one place, Applyful users can now see what a campus looks like, the students and faculty, along with popular activities and majors, all without paying for that expensive visit.

October 2013: Collect and Organize Everything in One Place
Our next step was to enable students and their families to manage the information overload that takes place during the process. To this end, we launched Collections last month for each school and topic they are researching, along with a Calendar to manage all of those pesky deadlines and tasks that come up.
