Discuss Column

In the Data Menu there is a column that can be added to the student's list. The Discuss column. When this column is added, it becomes a chat portal per school.

One practical application for the Discuss column is during the college review process, where thoughts and impressions can be documented. For example, imagine a counselor who is aware that a family is adamant about applying to a school that the counselor believes will not result in a favorable outcome for the student. Despite the counselor's concerns, the family persists. Eventually, the results align with the counselor's expectations. However, the client remembers the counselor agreeing that the school was a good fit. In a different situation, the counselor would have to search through their emails, spending hours in a stressful and anxiety-inducing process. Instead, by consolidating opinions on a per-school basis in one place, it becomes effortless to refer back to one conversation about that specific school where the counselor provided honest advice regarding the student's potential. This is just one example of the advantage of the app portal chat.
