DISCOVER & EXPLORE
Quickly explore colleges, careers and majors all in one place. SmartGrad takes the guesswork out of the college and career planning process by linking careers to educational requirements (majors) and the colleges that offer them so you don't have to. Regardless of your career direction and academic interests SmartGrad has you covered.



GET THE BIG-PICTURE VIEW
SmartGrad allows you to quickly find jobs by salary, schools by the standardized test scores of incoming freshmen and so much more. Find the information you want with a few button taps!



FIND OUT HOW MUCH YOU'RE WORTH
Each career listing contains salary statistics so you can compare what you make to everyone else that does your job.



AUTO CALCULATES STUDENT LOAN DEBT
Looking at annual net-price is only half of the story. In order to learn how much you'll be paying for college you have to figure out how much of which type of student loans you'll be taking on, calculate loan fees, and calculate interest expenses that accrue while you're in school. Finally, a monthly student loan payment has to be calculated from your total debt load.

SmartGrad does all of the financial number crunching for you!


TRADES INCLUDED!
SmartGrad isn't just for people who have or are looking to get a 4-year degree. Most careers do not require a degree at all, and many lucrative careers can be obtained with a 2-year certification or less. SmartGrad gives you all the information and insight you need to determine which path is right for you.



DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?
Every job has an abilities chart so you can figure out whether you have what it takes to do the job well. SmartGrad also has all the admissions statistics for institutions with selective admissions policies so you can compare your test scores to the test scores of incoming freshmen and determine whether you have a chance at being admitted to the school.



PROVIDES STUDENT HOUSING STRATEGIES TO MINIMIZE DEBT
SmartGrad also supplies you with housing strategies powered by local rental market data so you know what your cheapest housing options will likely be (on-campus or off-campus) while you're in school.
