Say Hello to U Advisor
U Sphere, Inc. is sending out this press release this morning. We thought that our blog readers would appreciate a sneak peek.
USphere.com Launches U Advisor – An Individualized, Affordable, Confidential and Timely College-Planning Service
Web 2.0 Service Assists College-Bound Students and Their Parents
EVANSTON, Ill. – November 29, 2006 – U Sphere continues to revolutionize the college-admissions process with the introduction of U Advisor – an easy-to-use, confidential and personalized college-planning service. U Advisor allows students and parents to ask an unlimited number of questions, specific to their own situation, for only $10 a month. Questions are e-mailed through the U Sphere website (www.usphere.com) and answers are posted to the student’s U Advisor account within 24 hours. Registrants can sign up for as little as one month with no long-term commitments and no contracts.
“Students and parents who have utilized the other services available on our website told us they needed more personalized help in the college-planning process; but many are not able to afford an outside consultant. With U Advisor, we are able to provide targeted advice that should help ease their stress level so they can create a more focused college application and college-planning strategy,” said Dave Van de Walle, president and CEO, U Sphere, Inc.
U Advisor is ideal for families that can’t or don’t want to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on admissions consultants to help get their child into an Ivy League school.
The service features a question-and-answer format. For example, a student could ask a question, such as: “I want to study design, in California, but didn’t do well on standardized tests. What are my possibilities?” The student would then receive an individual response from U Sphere’s U Advisor team.
Van de Walle continued: “Students want to know if they’re on the right track, taking the right courses and applying to the right schools for them. We use the power of our university database and mesh it with the student’s academic performance to help them and their parents to plan appropriately.”
Students can get more information about U Advisor and sign up directly for the service at www.usphere.com/uadvisor.
U Sphere, Inc. launched its website at www.usphere.com in July of 2005. The website provides several free college-planning tools and has a unique application service that allows students to post a profile and have colleges and universities contact them if they are the right fit for that school.
