One clear next step, from eighth grade on.
An account saves your progress across devices and sends you the step each week. You don't need one to try it.
Without an account nothing leaves this device. You can create one later and keep your history.
Parents join from their student's invite
Your student invites you from inside the app (Settings → Invite a parent). You get an email, accept it, and from then on you can sign in here to see their progress — a weekly digest also lands in your inbox.
You see their progress. Only they can change their data — that's by design.

For teachers & counselors
A four-year plan for any career a student names — or "not sure yet", which gets real steps of its own. Free for every student.

Set goals for a student
On the student's device, goals can be recorded as coming from you — "Ms. Ortiz wants a 3.7 this semester." The student has to accept a goal before it changes their plan: a target nobody agreed to is a demand, not a goal. Parents work the same way, and a parent can ask you to set one — it lands as yours, with your name on it.
What they get
One next step at a time from an engine that knows the school calendar; a college-application activities list that writes itself from their logged hours; deadline warnings senior year; homework reminders from their own Canvas feed. Privacy: no ads, no selling data, nothing collected without an account.
Bring it to your school
A class pilot is free — one class, one semester. School and district licenses cover every student at $5/$3 per student per year. See all pricing — classroom, school and district.
Teacher accounts
A dashboard where you see your whole class and set goals directly is on the roadmap — it needs school-grade privacy plumbing, and we would rather build that right than fast. Want your class in the pilot? Email us.
First, how old are you?
Path to Success is built for students 13 and up. We ask before collecting anything else.
Privacy · Terms
We store the month and year only — never a full date of birth.
Come back in a bit.
Path to Success is only available to students aged 13 and older, so we can't set up an account for you yet.

Count them separately: shadowing means observing a healthcare professional at work. Volunteering means unpaid service anywhere. Paid work and study time do not count toward either.

Where they stand
Set a goal
They'll be asked to accept it. Until they do, it doesn't change what the app tells them to do — a target nobody agreed to tends to get ignored.
Goals you've set
You have read access to their progress. You can't change their record — only they can.

These are booked and past. Hours only count once you confirm.

Your activities list
Built from the hours you have confirmed, in the shape the Common App asks for.
Honors & awards
Up to five, 100 characters each. These cannot be worked out from your grades, so nothing appears here until you add it.

Up to three at once — the first is the plan you see each day. Changing any of this keeps every grade, course, hour and score you have logged.
Plus — for parents
Everything in this app is free for the student, and stays free. Plus adds one thing: a weekly progress email to a parent — where they stand, what changed, and the one step that matters this week.

Canvas homework
In Canvas, open Calendar → Calendar Feed and download the file the link gives you, then import it here. Your assignments stay on this device — no passwords, nothing uploaded. Re-import once a week to stay current.
Your school
Without these, deadline warnings fall back to a nationwide guess — which is wrong for any school that closes its first term in January.
Check your school calendar for the last day of each grading period.
After high school
College isn't the only door. This sets which deadlines the app warns you about — a plumber-bound senior needs union application windows, not the Common App.
How far ahead to look
One step is the whole idea — a plan, not a checklist. But if you like seeing what's coming, preview a few. Only the top step is ever actionable.
ACT timing
Switching tracks re-plans roughly three months of nudges.
