Deadline Tracker: never miss a due date

Track every application deadline in one place. Regular Decision, Early Action, Early Decision, scholarship deadlines, and financial aid dates. All auto-populated from our database.

By Ricardo Mello

Missing a deadline is one of the few mistakes in the college process that can't be fixed. You can rewrite an essay. You can retake a test. But if you miss a Regular Decision deadline, that school is off your list. We built the Deadline Tracker so that never happens.

How it works

When you add a school to your college list, Blueprint automatically pulls in every relevant deadline: Early Decision, Early Action, Regular Decision, priority financial aid, CSS Profile, FAFSA, and scholarship deadlines. You see everything in a timeline view sorted by date, with color-coded urgency indicators.

  • Auto-populated deadlines from our database of 4,000+ schools
  • Custom deadlines for scholarships, interviews, or personal reminders
  • Email and in-app notifications as deadlines approach
  • Timeline and calendar views for different planning styles

We also built a "what's due this week" summary that shows up at the top of your dashboard. No more spreadsheet tracking. No more missed dates because you forgot to check a school's website.
