Counsellor

Every student’s applications, in one place

Counsellor keeps your whole caseload in view: where each student is applying, where each application has got to, what falls due next and who still has no destination. Your students keep their own list beside yours.

What it does

One row per application

Record the destination, the course, the status, the deadline and the documents each application needs, with your own notes beside it.

Who needs you this week

See at a glance who has a deadline in the next 14 or 30 days, who has documents still to send, and who has no destination yet.

Students keep their own list

Each student adds the places they are researching and preparing for. Once an application moves on, you update it, and your notes stay yours.

How it works

  1. Set up your practice

    Sign up, then add your students on the People page or give them a join link.

  2. Record the applications

    Add each destination with its deadline and the documents it needs, or let students add their own.

  3. Keep everyone on track

    Work from the students who are due soon, and follow up on what is still to send.

What it costs

Start on the free plan, with no card. A subscription to Counsellor is NZ$25 a month for your practice.

Questions people ask

Do I need a school to sign up?

No. Counsellor is for independent university and careers counsellors: you set up your practice and add the students you guide, with nothing for a school to install.

Can my students see their applications?

Yes. Each student sees their own list and can add places while they are researching or preparing. Your notes and risk flags are never shown to them.

Can the AI help with research?

Yes. Ask the AI for a starting shortlist for a student, then keep the places that fit. It is available once you have verified your email address.

Can I add more later?

Yes. Add another app, such as meetings with families or a portfolio of your students’ work, or the whole of MyTime, and keep everything you already have.
