Included in the cost of your account you have a unique login, branded with your logo - If you want to extend that to the URL - you can!
There are THREE TYPES of custom URL addresses for your Student and Parent Portals.
1. app.counselmore.com - included and likely what you see today.
2. app.collegeapptracker.com - generic not your name or ours in URL
3. yourcompanyname.collegeapptracker.com - custom your company's name included
Which do you choose?
Custom-branded login experience—e.g. using your domain (such as portal.collegeline.com
) and header branding—without visible references to CounselMore. That’s a common request, and we’re pleased to accommodate it through our custom development services.
✅ What We Offer
CounselMore offers a white-label login portal solution that allows companies like yours to:
-
Host the login page on your own custom domain
-
Reflect your brand in the header, footer, colors, and logos
-
Avoid exposing “CounselMore” in the user-facing interface
-
Optionally send email notifications from your domain (via SMTP settings)
This aligns with our standard Custom Solutions services, backed by our in-house U.S.-based team. (counselmore.com)
