Changes to coach evaluation
Commitment updates

Interpreting My Profile Activity
You and your coaches can gauge the level of interest colleges are showing by the types of Profile Activity you receive.
For example, if you receive a Search Appearance but no profile view when a college searches you can infer that they haven't evaluated your profile.
However, if a college views your profile, watches your video, but doesn't follow you, speak with your coaches about reaching out to that college directly to learn what additional information they need. You can also reach out directly by contacting colleges from your Target Schools list.
