Notion

This Guide is complemented by a dynamic and customizable workspace, accessed via Notion. It includes the following features:

  • Financial Aid Applications Tracker
  • Post-Secondary Applications Tracker
  • Supplementary Documentation Database
  • Experience Tracker
  • Task and Project Management Database
  • Loan Repayment Calculator
  • Personal Finance Tracker
  • Projected Expense Calculator
  • Skills Database
  • Other additional resources

There is no “expiry” on the software, so once you’ve copied it over to your personal Notion, you can use the same template forever. There is also no cost associated with the template.

Instructions for Accessing the Notion Workspace

1. Access the template through the button below[1]:

 

A square box with the text, "Click Here." The link attached to the image redirects users to the Notion template.
