Description
For my Interactive Design class, I collaborated with Anjana Singhwi, Shelly Seroussi and Katie Santos to create an iPhone app for Parsons the New School for Design. The app is targeted towards accepted students and aims to guide them through a smooth transition into Parsons.

Each year, Parsons accepts 63% of their applicants with 784 first-time degree seeking freshmen. We decided to base our app on this demographic because, from our personal experience, we wanted to improve the complicated experience of moving into college.

The whole project can also be viewed at http://www.wix.com/kjsantos369/check-parsons

There are four major sections of the app: the checklist, contacts, locations and newsfeed.

The app begins with allowing the user customizing the checklist. After completion, the checklist lists requirements to be performed by the user based on his/her results.
