A working copy, with the source beside it
A checklist is useful because it turns requirements into actions. It becomes risky when a copied date loses its cycle or an old prompt looks current. Every school card keeps its review date, change notes, official links, and full Nudge guide within reach.
What the tool deliberately does not do
It does not import a Common App account, inspect an applicant portal, discover a deadline automatically, or certify that a file is complete. It gives you a private working layer over published guide data. The live college application remains the authority.
Common questions
Does this checklist include every college?+
No. It includes the 26 schools with current, hand-reviewed Nudge guides. A missing school is not evidence that it has no requirements.
Are these deadlines automatically updated?+
No. Each item shows the application cycle and review date from its Nudge guide. Recheck the official admissions source and live application before submitting.
Where is my college list stored?+
The selected schools, decision plans, and checkmarks stay in your browser's local storage. They are not uploaded to Nudge by this public tool.
Does checking every box mean my application is complete?+
No. The tool organizes published guide information. The college's applicant portal and live application determine whether the file is complete.
