Milestones
Big Goals, Broken Into Weeks You Can Win.
A postsecondary goal is too big to act on. A weekly task is not. Texas College Prep turns your pathway into milestones, your milestones into 30-day plans, and your plans into tasks — tracked in your USI dashboard and visible to the people supporting you.
Four Milestone Areas
Academics
GPA targets, course rigor, transcript review, class rank strategy
Testing
TSI readiness, SAT/ACT registration windows, score goals, retake decisions
Financial Aid
FAFSA/TASFA preparation, scholarship calendars, aid comparisons
Applications
ApplyTexas and Common App tasks, essays, recommendations, deadlines

About AI guidance: roadmap recommendations generated with AI assistance are always labeled as guidance — never as admissions decisions. USI staff can review every recommendation, and the underlying student inputs are preserved so a plan can always be explained, adjusted, or overridden by a human advisor.
