A nine-tab spreadsheet still missed it.
One family's parent kept a careful plan: every course by grade, a credit count, a GPA calculator, a list of questions for the counselor. It showed 24 planned credits against 21 required. It looked done.
We ran it against the school's published Program of Studies. The plan didn't graduate.
Nine to Next reads your school's published graduation rules and checks your plan every time it changes, so these show up in 9th grade, not senior year.
- Math, 1 credit shortAlgebra I and Geometry taken in 8th grade count as electives, not math.
- English, 1 credit shortAP Literature is a 12th-grade course. Planned for 11th, it couldn't cover both English requirements.
- A 9th-grade requirement never scheduledResearch & Design is required in 9th grade. It wasn't on her schedule.
- Senior-year requirement in the wrong yearGraduate Readiness only counts in 12th grade. It was planned for 11th.
Everything between ninth grade and the first day on campus.
Four-year plan
Lay out every course from 8th grade on, including online, dual-enrollment and study-abroad courses. See which later courses each choice unlocks, so 9th-grade decisions keep doors open.
Graduation check
See credits by subject, weighted and unweighted GPA, and exactly what's left, using your school's own rules. Courses planned in the wrong grade get flagged before you register.
Colleges
Build a list, track every application from "considering" to "enrolled", and see every college deadline in one place.
Ready for the counselor
Keep a running list of questions tied to each course, then print a one-page sheet for the meeting with what's settled and what's still open.
Built for how families actually do this.
Parents get their own account
Link one or more students, edit the plan together, and get a weekly summary of what's due. Students keep their own notes private.
