Getting Started

Build a saved program list

Collect the schools you want to revisit and keep a working audition list together as your research gets more serious.

4 stepsAbout 4 minUpdated October 2026
  1. 1

    Open your saved programs

    Your saved list is the shortlist workspace that keeps the schools you are seriously considering separate from the full catalog. Open it any time to pick your research back up where you left off.

  2. 2

    Add a school from inside your list

    Select the plus button labeled School to search the catalog without leaving your list. If a school is already saved, stageready flags it for you, so you never add the same one twice.

  3. 3

    Choose the right programs and keep them organized

    When a school offers several tracks, open Manage lists, choose Edit programs, and select the specific degrees you care about in the modal that opens (titled with the school's name). Save your program selections, then return to the list to switch between Cards, Table, and Map views. In Cards or Table view, pick My Order from Sort and use Reorder to open Reorder schools. Keep more than one list as your plan takes shape.

  4. 4

    Start several applications at once

    On a list you own, select Start applications to review the schools and programs that aren't in Applications yet. Choose the cycle you're Applying for and whether you're applying as a first-year, a transfer, or a current student, check International applicant if you aren't a citizen or permanent resident of the school's country, then confirm to start them all in one pass. stageready imports each program's recommended official deadlines and takes you to My Applications with a confirmation.

    This is a one-time copy, not a live sync: later changes to the list don't change applications you already started. Continue with Track applications and deadlines.
