Your List is where you can collate and organise the list of universities and colleges your interested in throughout your BridgeU university research journey. Use this section to mark the universities you’re interested in and those you’d like to apply to.
You can add universities and colleges to Your list at any time during your university search on BridgeU. By clicking the Add to list button within a university profile, the university will automatically appear in Your list and you can review them at any time.
How to find Your List
There are two ways that you can visit Your List:
- By navigating to Decide on the main menu and select Your List
- By selecting Your List when hovering over the
icon on the main menu
Organising Your list
We recommend that you add 8-12 institutions to Your List. When you’re ready to review the institutions you’ve added, you can start to organise them!
You may find that some institutions require you to pick a course, you'll be able to identify these in your list and click on the pick a course bubble to update your choice.
There are 3 status options to choose from:
- Shortlisted
- Application started
- Application sent
If you need to change the current status, you can select Clear status and then re-select the updated status.
Once you start organising Your list, you will notice that your institutions will be categorised according to your selected statuses (as shown in the screenshot below).
Application started: How exciting! Once you’ve decided which institution you’d like to apply to and have started your application for it, select the Application started status.
Once selected, you will be prompted to select the deadline and application route for your application.
For some universities/courses you may need to check the official university website for specific application deadlines and the route you apply will be different depending on the options for each university.
Click Update list to save your selected application deadline date and application method.
NOTE: If you are applying to universities or colleges via the Common App, these will automatically sync to your Institutions you’re applying to section in Your list when you Pair your Common App with BridgeU. Take a look at this article for information about Adding Common App Universities to Your List.
Updating your Application Outcomes
As you submit and hear back from Institutions you are applying to, use the status bubbles to update your progress and outcomes. Keeping this updated frequently will help both you and your advisor keep track. You can choose from various outcome options after you receive outcomes from the institution you applied to, as shown in the below example.
Deleting universities or colleges from Your List
If at any point you want to delete a university or college from Your List, select the trash icon found to the right of the university or college selection.
