Join the Do You University Movement!


Do You University Launches Next Week!

If you read this blog with any kind of frequency, hopefully by now, you have seen my announcement about ForwardUniversity.com rebranding as Do You University (DYU).  We are ultra-excited around these here parts of the world these days because we truly believe that DYU is positioned to really help a lot of students out there in Scholastica.  I almost posted here the other night, but we were experiencing some last minute hiccups that made me delay sharing my exuberance.


The DYU concept planning began last fall, and the more we looked at our research and the market--the more excited we became about building, and launching a new admissions consulting company that employs a more student-centered approach to college admissions consulting.  In February, we began our developer search, and after many days of deliberation selected our web developer.    Once we engaged our developer, it was nothing but days, and days of strategic plan reviews, content writing and rewriting, system and process reviews, conference calls, and meetings via Skype, and other fun things like dealing with corporate formation, intellectual property and vendor issues.  Launching a start-up is a lot of hard work . . . whew . . . and we are still working, and striving for perfection or at least optimality, and cohesion.

So, good people--DYU is scheduled to launch on Monday, July 28th,  Yes, that is this Monday coming up people--y'know the day after Sunday (LOL).  After waking up this morning for some final edits to the website, and integrity checks, DYU should go-live on Monday, and to say that I am excited is an understatement.  This calls for a celebration, but alas there is too much work yet to be done for that right now--so, my friends we must continue to work hard so that DYU will become the very best at what it does.  Hip-hip, hooray!
Ok, enough of my celebratory and festive ravings.  Let me tell you why you should join DYU if you are in high school or secondary school.  You should join DYU because DYU was created and launched with you in mind.  If you are a college-bound student--that means YOU!  DYU's platform was developed to create a pipeline between you and the many different colleges and universities that are out there in Higher Ed land.  I am not going to waste precious time telling you about DYU here--find out for yourself--take the plunge--sign-up for your free student member account today, and let's get it started.

Sign-up if you are a Senior, Junior, Sophomore or Freshman.  Tell your friends, let's start a chain reaction--because the more students like you that join DYU--the more effective we will be in taking over the world!  (Just joking!)  But, seriously though, the more serious students like you that join the DYU movement, well the larger the voice DYU will have, and we all know that there is strength in numbers.  So, Join today! Create your individual member profile, and let's move Forward To Your Future!
