At the close of these discussions, both the student and the college planner will know what it will take to get your child into his/her college of choice. 

 

We’ll Help Your Child Understand What They Want In A College

During these discussions, we’ll teach your child how to research a college. This includes understanding the various cultures, student bodies, strengths and educational standards of an institution. Before a student applies to a college, it is important for him/her to understand what that school will offer. We’ll break down each college—ranging from sports programs to Greek life, to help your student make the best possible decision. 

 

We’ll Also Discuss What Your Child Can Do To Increase Their Chances Of Getting Accepted To College

During these discussions, we’ll review all of the things that colleges look for when choosing applicants.

We’ll Show Your Child How To Write A Compelling, Unique & Memorable College Essay

During these meetings your student will discuss some of the ideas he/she has for essays. Colleges put a fair amount of emphasis on essays during the application process.
