CollegePlus is basically an advisor. They have someone help you map out your degree template, give you suggestions on which order to take certain courses, help you choose electives, provide study resource suggestions for courses, guide you through the enrollment process, etc. You have a coach assigned to you that you can ask questions of any time and you speak together on the phone periodically (usually I just do it once a month) to see how you're doing, what things you need help on, etc. The coach is both an advisor and, to some extent, a means of accountability.
If you're already enrolled in a college and already have an advisor, you wouldn't need them. But if you're feeling your way along in the dark on your own and wish somebody could kind of hold your hand and give you some direction, College Plus is helpful.
It's really been nice for me because they've saved me hours of research and hassle. They've greatly simplified the college process--all I have to do is study!
And yes, they work with Thomas Edison.
