Understanding your diagnosis and your Trail Score

The DVP (Study-Path Viability File) checks whether your academic, migratory and financial project is realistic before you commit. It lists prioritized weak points and concrete actions.

Example: planning a master's abroad, the DVP flags a missing proof of funds before the visa deadline — so you can fix it in time.

Readiness: how ready your project is today, based on what you entered.

Quality score: how reliable and recent the data behind the diagnosis is.

Weak points are grouped into academic, financial, administrative and calendar. Each has a status: solid (looks fine for now) or to address (needs action before you commit).

On school pages, the « International profile (ETER) » block shows sourced indicators for European institutions (foreign students, inbound mobility, international staff, student/staff ratio, size, founding year). Your diagnostic may also surface a « sourced administrative requirements » card (visa and required documents) when that data exists for the destination.

Example: a readiness of 60% with an 'administrative — to address' weak point means your project holds up, but the visa file needs attention first.

The Trail Score rewards your contribution to the community. You earn 50 points per validated contribution and 150 points per successful referral.

Track each application step by step (application, interview, decision, visa, departure). Launch one from a school, scholarship or opportunity page, then follow it under “My journey → My applications”.

Example: On a school page, click “Start an application”; the steps and recommended documents are pre-filled.

Guide members can ask to be supported by a TrailLearn mentor on a specific application. Mentors are members of the TrailLearn team; you choose exactly what you share (which applications, your profile) and can revoke access anytime.

To request mentoring: have the Guide plan, launch an application, then click “Request mentoring” on the My applications page.

Example: Your mentor can comment on each step and chat with you in a 1:1 thread; you are notified of every message.
