The Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) launched the first free smartphone app specifically designed to help Illinois students plan, prepare and pay for college. The B4College app sends personalized notices directly to students who download and install the app on their mobile device.
Developed in-house by ISAC’s College Access and Outreach, IT and Research, Planning and Policy Analysis teams, B4College automatically delivers relevant, timely and personalized alerts to college-bound students. Currently the application sends two types of user-selectable alerts: FAFSA completion reminders and alerts about local ISACorps and other agency outreach events.
Currently available for Android smartphones at Google Play, an iPhone version will launch in early summer. A Facebook account is required to use the app. Additional information, including an introductory video and link to Google Play, is available at ISAC’s website,
