myCollegeSTAT Invests in WordPress. Sort of.
Hello myCollegeSTAT team, users, administrators, supporters, admirers, family, fans, lovers, etc. We decided to enter the blogging world to bulid stronger bonds with our community. And because we like to talk.
Last night we launched a renovated layout for cSTAT. No major changes, yet, but there are quite a few new and cool features and some user-related updates.
- CollegeBOX: We added a “CollegeBOX” on all the college pages to allow users to submit anonymous opinions about schools. I will shamelessly plug my school, NYU, as an example of the CollegeBOX in action. The anonymous opinions are available for all schools and it’s as simple as clicking “Write a Comment.” By the way, I’d like for everyone to take note of the spiffy fade-in text box, all thanks Awad!
- Edit Profile: There are a million and one changes and updates here. I hope I can cover them all. Overall, the “Edit” links now lead you to a whole new spiffy fade-in text box, once again, kudos to Awad. Onto more changes.
- Interests: You can now share your interests on your profile, be it baseball, vintage cars, rock music, or collecting insects on Saturday nights to make mystery stew. We open the world to you.
- Tests: The layout of the display of tests (founder under profile) has been updated. In my opinion, it is now cleaner, more user-friendly, and more navigable. However, this is a biased point of view. Feel free to disagree and leave us feedback. We love hearing from users and we love feedback.
- Monthly Sweepstakes: If you have not completed a full cSTAT profile yet, do so soon! Our monthly sweepstakes will be ending in about a week, so don’t miss your chance to win a free gift card.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates about new events at myCollegeSTAT.com. Our “Student of the Month Scholarship” is planned for next month and we also have a cool new forum and a marketing internship to tell you guys about. We will update everyone as soon as there’s more information (the August Newsletters is going to have tons of info!) . For now, good night cSTATans (or cSTATers, whatever you prefer), until next blog.
