How Credits Work
Exploring costs nothing
Every school is already banded against your record before you spend anything: Reach, Target or Safety, with the reasoning behind each. Browsing, comparing and chat never touch a credit.
Adding a school is the full read
Adding a college spends the credit and runs the deep read in one step: fit factors, gaps, essay angles, your per-major chances from the school's official catalog, and your listing strategy.
Re-view free, forever
A saved analysis is yours to re-open any time at no cost. You only spend again if you ask for a fresh one after your record changes.
Credits also pay for the other deep work you ask for: a Major Map, a Major Strategy, a fresh read of per-major chances, and essay outlines or reviews.
Every plan sees every school
Your odds at all 248 universities are computed free the moment your profile exists. Plans only decide how many schools you take deep.
The whole map, free
The instant read scores every school in the catalog against your record as Reach, Target or Safety, before you spend anything. Exploring never costs a credit.
Odds per MAJOR, not just per school
Every deep dive ranks the school's majors for you from its official catalog: direct-admit, pre-major, or capped doors. Each has a "view source" link to the school's own publications.
You know when a read is out of date
Your analyses tell you when your record or a school's data has changed, so you know which to refresh. The roadmap, deadlines, essay workshop and summer picks run the whole application year.
A season of counseling, without the price tag
Private counseling costs vary; $5,000+ per season is typical for comprehensive packages. The Season Pass is $149 for the year, with 150 credits and every feature included for the whole journey.
Common Questions
What is a credit?
Credits pay for the deep work you ask for: a school's full read when you add it, a Major Map, a Major Strategy, an essay outline or review.
Do credits expire?
Credits from a pack never expire. The Season Pass grants 150 credits for the year, and when it renews those start again at 150; any pack credits you have left carry over on top. Plan credits are always used before pack credits.
When do I use a credit?
When Stratia makes something you keep: adding a college (the full read, per-major chances included), a Major Map, a Major Strategy, a fresh read of per-major chances, or an essay outline or review. Re-opening what you already have, browsing universities and chatting with Astra never use credits.
Is chat limited?
Astra, your counselor in chat, is on every plan and never spends a credit. Free accounts get 30 messages a day; Season Pass members get 120.
Do the free tools have daily limits?
Yes. Each resets every day, and anything you have written stays saved.

What if I update my profile?
