College Life OS

Get started

For parents and families

Be genuinely helpful, from a few hundred miles away

You want to know that tuition is paid, the housing form is in and finals week isn't a surprise — without turning every phone call into an interrogation. CollegeOS lets your student decide what you see, then keeps you in the loop automatically.

Invite my family to CollegeOS

A weekly summary you didn't have to ask for

What's coming up next week in the categories your student shared, delivered on a day and time they pick.

Deadlines you can actually act on

Tuition, financial aid, housing, move-in and travel home — visible early enough to be useful.

Your student stays in control

Permissions are per person and per category, and can be paused or switched off at any moment.

A place to be asked for help

Instead of a lost text thread, your student sends a clear request — order the textbook, look at this form — and you can respond right there.

Nothing private, ever

Notes, journals, study reflections and AI conversations are never visible to supporters.

Works for tutors and mentors too

Add a tutor for one class, with a set end date, and nothing beyond that class is shared.

Questions people ask

Can I see my college student's grades?

Only if they choose to share that. Federal privacy rules mean colleges won't hand you records, and CollegeOS works the same way: your student switches on each category, such as upcoming deadlines or move-in dates, and can pause it any time.

How can I help my college student stay organized without nagging?

You get a weekly summary and optional reminders about the dates they've shared, so you already know what's coming and can offer help at the right moment instead of asking what's due.

What does a parent actually see?

Whatever your student allows, category by category: school admin deadlines, move-in and travel dates, exam weeks, or a weekly overview. Notes, journals and their AI conversations are never shared.

Do I need my own account?

Yes, and it's free. Your student sends an invitation and you get your own login with a simple dashboard.

Can grandparents, a mentor or a tutor be included?

Yes. A student can invite several supporters, including a tutor limited to one class with an access end date.
