Why Counselors Love Scoir

We love hearing from our community, and we especially enjoy hearing how Scoir is helping counselors support students! 🙌

Let’s explore what counselors have to say so you know what you can expect when you join Scoir.

1. Customer Support

Scoir is simple to use, but when you do have questions, our friendly and knowledgeable Client Success and Support teams are ready to lend a hand. 

Plus…99% of support tickets are resolved within 24 hours! 

We have a step-by-step onboarding process to make onboarding onto Scoir as simple as possible for your team.

Alexandria Phelps of the International Academy Bloomfield Hills in Michigan shared with us how Scoir is a “one-stop shop” with great customer service.

"As one of the early adopters of Scoir, …I love that it's a one-stop shop; Scoir has a great customer service team, where if you have any issues you can always reach out. You can go and send all of the student's information right in one go. You can constantly see what kids are doing on Scoir and there is a record of it so that you never have to ask any questions. I love Scoir!" - Alexandria Phelps, International Academy Bloomfield Hills

2. Visits

We understand how important college visits and fairs are to the college prep journey. That’s why we’ve invested a lot of time into creating a Visits experience that is simple to use for college admissions staff, counselors, and students.

Jazmin John, Assistant Director of College Counseling at the Friends School of Baltimore, shared how the visits feature has helped her and her students: “I honestly could not tell you what a difference Scoir has made for our community, for me, for my students, for families. It's an amazing way for our students to search for schools.”

"...we have been using Scoir for 3 years, and I honestly could not tell you what a difference Scoir has made for our community, for me, for my students, for families. It's an amazing way for our students to search for schools. We're able to share really cool data with our students that helps them make advised decisions. We can do visits there; we just started doing mini fairs and it's so easy to get all of that data together, get people to sign up. I am honestly Scoir's number one fan!" - Jazmin John, Assistant Director of College Counseling, Friends School of Baltimore

3. College and Career Readiness

And of course…college and career readiness! That’s our bread and butter 🍞

Terrell Dozier a Counselor at Riverhead Charter School, shared that Scoir has “changed our school's life as far as college readiness is concerned for students.” ❤️

"We were introduced to Scoir 4 years ago during Covid and it's changed our school's life as far as college readiness is concerned for students. We like the fact that you can take virtual tours on the site, our students can follow the schools that they'd like to go to and drag them over. As now we’re having our first graduating class to apply to schools and can't wait to get those acceptances. So, thank you to Scoir for everything that you are doing for Riverhead Charter School." - Terrell Dozier, Counselor, Riverhead Charter School

"I can not recommend Scoir enough to both counselors and university reps. I joined when it first came out, I am the first Irish school and one of the first international schools to use it. It is unbelievable, it will make your life so much easier. It is a game changer, I literally use it every day to contact students, book things, everything! And for students on the other end, it is just magnificent because they are able to read about your university, they can get all the information they want. And for U.S. schools, they can also use it for applying. They have an application system on it, it connects to the CRM systems. Truly, this will be a game changer for you. You have to join!” - Niamh Kavanagh, International Recruitment Officer, University of Limerick

4. User-friendly

Scoir stands out because it’s a platform students actually want to use. Scoir’s intuitive design and mobile app (with 5 stars in the Apple store!) resonates with Gen Z.

Plus, as Dan McDermott, a Counselor at Conestoga High School shared, we make transitioning to Scoir a breeze: “We transitioned over to Scoir last year full time from a competitor and it's been a game changer for us, it's really been nice.”

"I have been using Scoir for a total of six weeks now, brand new to this position. And one of my favorite things is that it's really user friendly and I am also really looking forward to seeing how they change and grow as they roll out more of the career preparedness search and how that relates to colleges.” - Kristy Lim, Director of College Counseling, Villanova Preparatory School

"We transitioned over to Scoir last year full time from a competitor and it's been a game changer for us, it's really been nice. It's extremely user friendly and our teachers love it! Our families are loving the college search, but also the user-friendliness of the program and the platform, more importantly the social fit and the academic fit. That is what we preach at Conestoga, about finding academic, personal, social and financial fit, and Scoir is a great tool to marry all of those things to benefit the student regardless of their outcome. I just want to say we endorse Scoir tremendously. Thank you!" - Dan McDermott, Counselor, Conestoga High School

5. Ongoing Improvements

We’re always gathering feedback so we can build better at Scoir. We’re committed to continuous improvement, because we’re committed to you and your students!

"...we love Scoir because it's user-friendly, we don't have to show students and parents how to use it very minimally. They are always updating, upgrading, and open to suggestions, so it's been a wonderful platform for our end users, but also for us as counselors to work with the Scoir team.” - Ivy Hartman, College and Career Counselor, Rockwood Summit High Schoo
