Building a tailored college list begins with discovery 🕵️ Here, we break down the multiple ways to search and match with colleges the Scoir!
Searching for Colleges
Whether you're doing a quick search or diving into advanced searches, you'll find a lot of functionality! There are several ways to discover and search for colleges of interest to you.
Basic Search
If you already have a certain college in mind, begin typing the name in the search bar. Once the name appears below, click on it to go the College Profile.
![](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1675946742731/screenshot-2023-02-09-at-7-45-18-am.png)
The search bar will save your recent searches and show you other colleges you may like as well. You can save the college from the search bar to your My Colleges list by clicking the bookmark icon on the right side of the college name.
![For students: Discover Colleges - search bar results](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1714758286067/screenshot-2024-05-03-at-12-21-05-pm.png)
Advanced search and filtering
Narrow down your search and see a list of colleges that meet specific criteria by using filters. Access filters by navigating to Discover or by using the search bar. You can choose a pre-populated filter under Start Your Search (Ex. 4 Year US Colleges, Northeast, Test-Optional) to get started.
![For Students: Discover Colleges - advanced search](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1714754824414/for-students-discovering-colleges-advanced-search.png)
Once you select one of the filters as directed above, you’ll see the 5 most popular filters in the top left navigation: Academic Focus, Degree, Size, Location, and Setting.
Click the filters you want to set based on your preferences, and a drop down will appear with your options. If you do not see what you're looking for, click Show More.
![For Students: Discover Colleges - college search](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1715024677052/clean-shot-2024-05-06-at-15-42-24.png)
Select the All Filters button to see additional filter options like Personal Interests & Activities, ROTC Programs, Test Scores & Admission Rates, Athletics, Application Method, and more.
![](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1675948602558/screenshot-2023-02-09-at-8-16-17-am.png)
Once you've chosen your filters, the resulting list of colleges will default to sort by relevance. You can easily change the sort by selectivity (admissions rate) or by size in the upper right hand corner of the results page.
![For Students: Discover Colleges - sort colleges by relevance](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1715024861393/clean-shot-2024-05-06-at-15-46-34.png)
Add the colleges you’re interested in to your list by clicking Follow. You can also choose to compare up to 4 colleges at a time and see a side-by-side view of what they have to offer by clicking + Add to Compare. Colleges with the option to apply directly through Scoir will show the green lightning bolt icon and allow you to begin applying by clicking that button.
![For Students: Discover Colleges - college card](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1715024932623/screenshot-2024-05-06-at-3-48-28-pm.png)
#Posts
With #Posts, you can browse exciting content created by colleges, based on your interests (#StudyAbroad, #Dorms, etc.)! Explore what colleges have to offer by navigating to Discover > Posts.
![](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1703106788881/screenshot-2023-12-20-at-4-09-33-pm.png)
Events
Navigate to Discover > Events to explore and sign up for events hosted by colleges, including information sessions, workshops, and campus tours. College Events are unique from College Visits because they are hosted by the college for all schools and the general public. Filter your search by the colleges you’re following, virtual tours, and recurring opportunities to get the most out of your experience!

Matching with Colleges
Go beyond filtering and sorting colleges to discover other colleges that might be a good match for you!
For You
In the For You section of your Discover experience, you'll find colleges and resources that match your interests and preferences. Whether you want to access your last search, explore free applications with Scoir, or colleges that offer an area of interest (like study abroad), the For You page has it all!
![For Students: Discover Colleges - For You](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1714755736602/for-students-discover-colleges-for-you.png)
My Matches
My Matches is a list of colleges based on your preferences that you can view in Discover.
![For Students: Discover Colleges - My Matches](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1714755899426/for-students-discover-colleges-my-matches.png)
If you haven't added any preferences yet, you will be asked to add preferences to get matched with colleges and receive smarter recommendations from Scoir. You can also Set College Preferences from your profile, accessed under Me.
![](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1627710979822/screen-shot-2021-07-31-at-1-56-01-am.png)
Colleges on your My Matches list can reach out to you directly through messages, giving you the chance to learn more about their programs, campus life, and anything else you're curious about. You'll receive these messages in your My Matches inbox. Don't worry, we don't share any personal information about you! Colleges only know that you're a potential match based on your preferences.
If you find a college interesting, you can follow them directly from your inbox! You can also see messages from My Matches on your dashboard and the College's Profile. If you don't want to messages from specific colleges you match with, simply indicate that you're not interested.

Find Your College Match Quiz
Take a quiz that consists of questions designed to match you with colleges based on what you’d like to study, where you’d like to live, and more. It’s a fun way to set your preferences and helps build a robust discovery experience!
Initially, you’ll find the quiz located on your student dashboard.
![](https://files.helpdocs.io/h5abasfvji/articles/51dwlyovnk/1668103866991/screen-shot-2022-11-10-at-1-10-22-pm.png)
