About us
Our Story
Hey I'm Kim. I'm a mom of 2 teens, entrepreneur, and a perpetual creator/systems nerd. I'm super busy - aren't we all- but love making great support systems so my family & I can do the things we love together.
I live by the "Work Hard, Play Hard" and "Work Smarter, Not Harder" vibes, and great systems support both mantras.
ACCEPTED was born out of navigating the marathon of college admissions for 3+ years with my daughter & thinking there had to be a better way than post-it notes, forgotten passwords, and hundreds of different deadlines.
After a lot of research, I found that there wasn't anything out there that was digital, fully-customizable, centralized, and shareable (unless you hire an expensive planner or agency to help you) ....... until now .
So I got to work creating ACCEPTED after we moved said daughter into her Freshman dorm, because I dreaded that this process was quickly approaching again for my HS Junior.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ACCEPTED?
ACCEPTED is a fully-customizable Notion-based college admissions planner & app designed to streamline the entire college application process. From tracking universities, financial aid, and essay development to managing deadlines, we give families the tools they need to stay organized and confident. 🎓 #FAQ #CollegeApps
How does ACCEPTED work?
We offer a customizable digital planner through Notion. With sections for essay brainstorming, scholarship tracking, and application deadlines, it’s your all-in-one tool for managing the journey to college. 🚀 To set up ACCEPTED, you first need to set up a Notion account (it's free!). Once you purchase ACCEPTED, you will be sent directions and video tutorials about how to import the planner into your account and start using it right away! #FAQs #CollegePlanning
Is ACCEPTED easy to use if we've never used Notion before?
Absolutely! We provide video tutorials and easy-to-follow guides, making sure anyone can jump right into using our templates—even if you’re new to Notion. If you have any experience with Excel spreadsheets and Word Docs, or any document in Google Drive, you will feel comfortable using ACCEPTED. The real magic happens with the seamless integration of these databases into one planner, which will blow your mind!💡#NotionHelp #GetOrganized
Why choose ACCEPTED over a college consultant or using our own spreadsheets?
If your teen is planning on applying to several schools and you do not want to hire a college planner, then ACCEPTED is the perfect alternative. College consultants can cost $4,000-$10,000, but with ACCEPTED, you get the structure and organization for a fraction of the cost. It’s designed to make the process easier and very affordable. 💰 And sure, you can use spreadsheets. That's what we did with our daughter #classof2024. But you'll find that your information is still spread out everywhere and is often difficult to find and keep track of. The college application database alone in ACCEPTED is amazing. #collegeconsultantalternative
Can I share the planner with my teen and spouse?
Yes! Information within ACCEPTED is fully shareable, so parents and teens can collaborate, leave notes, and track progress together. It’s a team effort for college success! 🙌
If you purchase ACCEPTED during our Mega Launch Sale as a founding member, you get lifetime access to all future updates. #FAQ #Teamworkmakesthedreamwork
