Follow on Google News | ApplyGo.com launches OneCollege Program for International StudentsInternational student social network ApplyGo.com delivers regular OneCollege reports on selected US institutions of higher education providing critical data points for international students
By: ApplyGo.com Traditional lead generation websites place emphasis on syndicated data that they acquire from an aggregator, putting out standard information about US institutions of higher education. International students are savvy enough to visit multiple sites to gain as much information as possible. What is missing, are some crucial pieces of information, which is now provided by ApplyGo.com through it's OneCollege Program. Harsha Raghavan, Founder & CEO notes "When I was an international student myself, I wanted information like crime reports, weather conditions and admissions requirements. True, that is all available online, but what students want is a service that brings those datapoints together in one place." ApplyGo.com even develops a poster that can be downloaded by students, because many-a-times, internet connection in Asian and other countries are charged by the kilobyte downloaded and time spent surfing. Mr. Raghavan continues "We wanted to eliminate the need for these students to stay online to download this information to their computers. They can now download a poster with all the crucial information needed, plus a little whitespace to write comments and make notes. Students can then print this poster out and pin it up to their wall or study desk." While it may seem counter-intuitive to print information off the web, it is the ideal way to let students keep track of the information they see on the internet. At the time of this writing, the OneCollege Program has already featured the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Texas at Dallas and is currently featuring the Illinois Institute of Technology at Chicago. # # # Engineering, MBA and other admissions made painless by our student network. We make it cheaper and easier for US institutions of higher education to enroll international students. End
