BigFuture School is College Board’s free iPhone app for students who are 13 or older and attend a participating U.S. school. According to College Board, it is designed to help students explore colleges, careers, and personalized guidance in one place, with access tied to in-school SAT or PSAT-related testing and, in some cases, eligible AP course participation. The App Store listing also identifies the app as iPhone-only. (satsuite.collegeboard.org; apps.apple.com)
Its most practical use is score access. College Board says students can view scores from eligible in-school SAT Suite assessments in the app, and that access can begin by providing a mobile number during exam setup or, in some cases, by using a test registration number. The company also notes that the mobile number is used to authenticate the student and is separate from a College Board account. (satsuite.collegeboard.org; apps.apple.com)
BigFuture School also includes exploration tools. College Board says students can search colleges, careers, and skills, and receive in-app messages about colleges, scholarships, and careers that are timed by grade level, season, and interests. The page also describes Skill Search, Career Search, and College Search as ways to compare future pathways based on preferences and interests. (satsuite.collegeboard.org)
If available through a school, district, or state, the optional Connections feature adds another layer of discovery. College Board says it can surface nonprofit colleges, scholarship providers, and government agencies that may be a fit and are actively looking for students like them. The company also says students can opt out, that no personally identifiable information is shared with Connections institutions, and that Connections is not available to 8th-grade PSAT 8/9 test takers or in New York.

For iPhone users, the verified minimum iOS requirement is iOS 17.1. The app is free on the App Store. Practical limits to keep in mind: access depends on eligibility, a participating school, and the testing setup used; AP-related access is described by College Board as available only in eligible settings, with exceptions noted by the company. If you do not meet those conditions, App Store compatibility and College Board support information are the right places to check. (apps.apple.com; satsuite.collegeboard.org)
