Comprehensive Advising Services
We assist students and families at every step of their college application journey. We are here to support and guide you as you navigate this path. Whether it’s planning your college experience from the early stages of your high school career or assisting with some last minute decisions senior year, we are happy to help!
Most of our students benefit from our private 1:1 Partnered Path to College program, enrolling late in sophomore year or early in junior year. Our goal is to have students engaged throughout their junior year so that they can hit the ground running as soon as the application process begins, complete with college selection, application planning, goal assessment, a polished essay and a clear process and timeline outlined.
Some students find themselves late in junior year or early senior year, having started the process, overwhelmed and needing help. We offer several solutions from private guidance to summer support.
Family Strategy Package for Seniors
Our work begins with a virtual Family Strategy Session designed to help your student set goals and priorities for the college application journey. During this 90-minute meeting we will explore and make recommendations for the student’s:
- Academic and extracurricular profile
- Standardized test scores and testing plan
- Career interests and possible college majors
- Initial college list and application timeline
After the Family Strategy Session, the advisor will identify core tasks to be completed and help the student build a plan for getting the work done and keeping stress at a minimum. The action plan contains step by step guidance for tackling the tasks and a timeline through December 2024 as well as links to essential documents and forms. Following the family meeting, students book an additional 30-minute meeting to work on the task that is the biggest priority for them:
- Further building out of the college list to include admissibility
- Essay theme development
- Common Application Activities section
All families have access to our resource packet which provides a host of materials for identifying college values and building a list, financial aid estimating and essential forms and “how-tos”, essay writing, college admissions office expectations and more!
