Hey college students.

http://www.bystudents.com

Applying to college sucked. And for students who are going through it now, it still sucks.

But we don't think it has to.

We want to create a new kind of college guide - one that doesn't have to pretend it's the ultimate authority on colleges, because it defers to the real authority: you.

No one has tried this before, because the things you want to say aren't always the sunny, whitewashed, brochure-ready sound bites that publishers want to sell to parents. Because ultimately, publishers and university PR departments are in no position to give someone looking at your college the info they need. Only you are.

And that's our project. If it works, applying to college will get a lot less confusing and little more fun. We think that's a worthwhile goal. But we can't do it by ourselves. It starts with you.

So find your school at ByStudents.com. Tell us about it. Say literally whatever you want. You'll be part of the solution.

I hope this becomes even more successful than Rate My Professor (whom I don't like anymore because they sold out to MTV). It's a good idea, but as said in the video it just needs students to help follow it up. Good luck. I'll be filling out that survey I received in my inbox soon.
