A coalition of more than 80 colleges and universities is rolling out a free web portal that aims to help low-income and minority high school students navigate the college admissions process.

All eight of the Ivy League schools have decided to work with the web portal from Coalition for College Access, according to an Oct. 19 NBC news article. Other institutions, such as Stanford University, the University of Chicago, Wellesley College, Tufts University and Texas A&M University have also joined the coalition.

Students can get a head start by to applying to college as early as 14 years old, according to the article.

Amy LeStrange, a high school counselor from Syracuse-area Jamesville-DeWitt High School, said in an email she asked a few college representatives at a meeting last week about the portal, but they had no information to offer her.

The web portal will be available in April 2016, according to the article.

Denise Becher, another counselor at Jamesville-DeWitt High School, said she had not heard about the portal, and added that the school instead uses Naviance, which also connects to the Common Application for applying to college. More than 9,000 schools and districts currently use Naviance, according to its website.

The Syracuse University Office of Admissions did not reply to a request for comment about whether or not it will be working with the new web portal
