The first year of college comes with no instructions.
The Unipacks Playbook is 17 lessons and 17 interactive tools. It walks your student through the big choices of college. It starts with picking a major and ends with a first job offer.
Buying this for your student? Use the email they check. That address becomes their login. Every time they sign in, a 6-digit code is sent to it.
Lesson 01 and the Major Fit Check, free to read.
The gap
Your student gets a dorm assignment, a course list, and a bill. Not a plan.
Orientation shows them where the buildings are. An advisor gets fifteen minutes a semester. The rest is on them. Which major. How to read the aid letter. Whether the internship clock has already started. They are eighteen. They are also moving out of your house.
Changing a major is not a failure. Changing it late is what turns four years into five. By then the required classes are locked in. Most of these choices are cheap to fix early and costly to fix later. Almost none of them get taught.
What you get
Not a book. A working set of lessons and tools.
Every lesson ends with a tool. Your student puts in their own answers and gets back a decision they can keep.
Lessons
Written straight to your student. Read them in order, or jump to the one that matters this week.
Interactive tools
One for each lesson. Fill them in on a phone or a laptop. Nothing to download.
Printable Toolkit
The whole thing on paper. For students who think better with a pen in hand.
Read it before you buy anything
Lesson 1 is free, in full.
Not a preview. Not a sample. The whole first lesson and its tool, free to anyone with an email address.
Lesson 01 — Choosing Your Major
- Why switching majors can cost one extra semester, or three. It comes down to which classes they took first.
- Where to find real pay data by major and by school. Two free government sources, both named in the lesson.
- Which pay number to trust, and which one to ignore.
- The boring middle test. What to do when a subject sounds fun but the daily work is not.
Includes the Major Fit Check
The first of the 17 tools. Your student scores up to three majors side by side. Interest is worth 40 points. Pay and job rate are worth 30 each. The result is a number, not a feeling.
You need an email address and a 6-digit code. No card. No charge. If the lesson is for your student, use their email.
This is the whole argument for the Playbook. If Lesson 1 is not worth your student’s time, the other sixteen will not be either. Do not spend $197 to find that out.
Everything inside
17 lessons. 17 tools.
In the order the choices come up. From the summer before move-in to the first job offer.
At checkout, use your student’s email. That address becomes the login for all of this.
What this normally costs
The same questions, priced by the hour.
These are the people families hire for the same choices. Their rates are worth knowing, even if you never call one.
Those rates buy one meeting. The Playbook covers four years. It does not expire.
Hire a consultant if you want someone to do the work for you. The Playbook is for parents who want their student to learn to do it. And for the many students who were never going to get a consultant at all.
Before you buy
Who this is for.
Buy it if
- Your student is picking a school, starting freshman year, or partway through it.
- They have not picked a major yet. Or they have, but never tested the choice.
- You want them making these calls, with something to follow.
- You would rather hand over one thing than have the same talk twelve times.
- You want a written record of what they chose and why.
Skip it if
- You want someone else to make the calls and fill out the forms.
- You want advice about one exact campus.
- You want one-on-one coaching.
- You want something in a box. This is all digital.
- Your student has already graduated.
How access works
Bought at 9pm, open at 9:01.
Enter your student’s email at checkout
That address becomes the login. One payment of $197. No subscription. Nothing to cancel later.
They sign in with a code
No password to make or forget. They type the email. A 6-digit code lands in that inbox. They are in.
It stays open
Phone, tablet, or laptop, for as long as they need it. The Printable Toolkit downloads from inside.
Use the email your student actually checks. The Playbook has no password. Every time anyone signs in, a new 6-digit code is sent to the checkout email. Not just the first time. If that inbox is yours and not theirs, you will be forwarding codes all year.
Read the free lesson first and your own address may fill in for you at checkout. Change it to theirs before you pay.
Already bought with the wrong address? Email support@unipacks.shop and it can be moved.
The guarantee
30 days. No reason needed.
Read all of it. Use the tools. If it is not worth what you paid, email us within 30 days and the $197 comes back. You do not have to explain. You will not be asked to.
Questions
The ones worth asking.
Is this just a PDF with a high price on it
No. The 17 lessons and 17 tools live on a page your student signs into. The tools take what your student types in and give back an answer for them. They are not blank lines to print.
The Printable Toolkit is the paper version. It is included.
Which email should I use at checkout
Your student’s. The address you enter becomes the login. There is no password. Every sign-in sends a new 6-digit code to that inbox.
Use your own address and your student cannot get in without you. You would have to forward a code every time. Use the email they check and it is theirs from minute one.
Already bought with the wrong address? Email support@unipacks.shop and it can be moved.
Who is it written for, me or my student
Your student. Every lesson speaks to them, so you can hand it over as is.
You can read it too, and most parents do. It is a fast way to learn which questions to ask.
Will my student actually use it
That is the real question. Lesson 1 answers it. Send them the free lesson before you spend a dollar. If they finish it and fill in the Major Fit Check, the rest will land. If they never open it, you are out nothing.
How long does it take to get through
Each lesson runs about fifteen to twenty-five minutes including its tool. Straight through, that is a weekend.
Most students do not read it that way. Each lesson sits near the point where it matters. Access does not expire. It stays useful from the summer before move-in to senior year.
My student already picked a major. Is this still useful
Lesson 1 is built for that case too. It checks a choice that is already made, while changing it is still cheap.
The other sixteen cover housing, roommates, classes, studying, scholarships, loans, budgets, internships, and the first job offer. None of those depend on the major.
Is there a subscription or an upsell after this
No. $197 is the whole price and there is nothing to renew. Access does not expire.
What if we buy it and it is not what we expected
Email us within 30 days and you get the full $197 back. No reason needed. No form to fill in.
Do we both need separate access
No. One email covers it. Sign in on their phone, their laptop, your laptop. Same address, new code each time.
The codes go to your student’s inbox. They will need to pass you one if you want to read it.
Start with the free lesson. Decide from there.
One thing before you check out. Use your student’s email, not yours. Every sign-in sends a 6-digit code to that address. It has to be an inbox they can open.
Instant access after checkout. 30-day money-back guarantee.
