Code for Philly Builds App for Philly Students to help with College Applications

Code for Philly is a local civic tech organization of volunteer developers, designers, and civic stakeholders who use technology as a means of civic and community engagement. Recently Code for Philly has built YadaGuru which reminds high school seniors about all the things they have to do for college applications, from filling in Naviance to signing up for tests, to checking in recommenders.

YadaGuru will send periodic text message reminders and is ideal for both families and students to help with reminders about things to do. Yadaguru can be used as a tool by guidance counselors, students, and families alike.
