College Search Spreadsheet Template: Organize and Compare Your College Research

Download this free college search spreadsheet template to track deadlines, compare requirements, and organize your admission research in one easy-to-use file.

Researching colleges? Keep track of them all with this handy spreadsheet. College search spreadsheets are magical. They let you keep track of all your college info and compare it easily. With tools like Google Drive and Dropbox, you can access your spreadsheets all the time on your phone and laptop. You can even color-code the fields if you want to get really wild.

We tell students to make a spreadsheet for their college search all the time (it came up three times in alone!). But after we looked online and saw there weren’t many sample college search spreadsheets out there, we decided we needed to take matters into our own hands.

So here it is, a College Search Spreadsheet template for the world to use. You can use it as is or make it your own with all of the college search criteria that are important to you.

Please note: This is our example template, so we can't grant you access to edit this specific document. But you can download the Google Sheets file to your own computer to make your own personal copy, copy and paste the fields into a new document, or just look at it for inspiration.

I am a deaf student, and I had always dreamed of going to Gallaudet University. CollegeXpress helped me search though other qualified universities. They helped me know for sure that Gallaudet University was the right choice for me!

Starting the college admissions process as an international student was daunting. Thankfully, 糖心Vlog was the first website I used for that cause and it helped me so much, from knowing where to start to deciding what my next move would be. I'll take a gap year, but I’m certainly using the website again when applying for fall 2023.

For me, CollegeXpress has given me a valuable tool to use with my students to explore colleges easily beyond objective data. It helps me find colleges for students that fit their needs and wants that aren’t quite so black and white. It's a wealth of knowledge, and the Type-A side of me loves all the lists and the fact that I know they're coming from folks who know what they're talking about. I share it with colleagues and students alike, and it's always well received.
