Xello: Award-Winning College and Career Readiness Platform
Xello, a prominent K–12 college and career readiness platform, has been recognized as the Overall College Prep Solution of the Year in the 8th annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards. With a focus on guiding students through the post-secondary planning journey, Xello offers a comprehensive system that combines exploration, planning, applications, financial aid resources, and outcome reporting to help students become future-ready.
The platform's College Planning tool enables students to research colleges, compare majors, track deadlines, request transcripts and recommendation letters, and monitor application progress. By integrating with tools like Common App, Xello facilitates the secure submission of application materials to a vast majority of colleges, streamlining the application process for students and counselors.
In addition to college planning, Xello provides access to financial aid and scholarships through embedded resources within the planning process. Students can receive guidance on FAFSA, grants, loans, and work-study programs, while a built-in scholarship database recommends opportunities based on student profiles and assists in tracking applications and results.
Xello goes beyond college planning by helping students explore various future pathways, such as CTE, military service, and entrepreneurship, based on their interests, skills, and goals. The platform also offers real-time visibility for counselors and administrators into student engagement, application progress, FAFSA completion, scholarships, and graduation readiness.
Recognized by EdTech Breakthrough for its comprehensive approach to college preparation, Xello is dedicated to empowering every student with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to create a successful and meaningful future.
