TOP 7 WAYS ADMISSIONS

CONSULTANTS CAN HELP 

High school has started and it is time to get serious about college. For ninth graders, we focus on setting students up for academic and extra-curricular success in high school.

This is one of the most crucial years of high school. You are setting the stage for college applications and now is the time to exploring colleges and building strong resumes that truly reflect your strengths.

It is game time. The college application should begin now and we are here to support you. In eleventh grade, students dig deeper into college selection and we create an individualized college list, a testing timeline, and begin preparing for college essays.

It is all about the applications and essays. In our sessions or intensive boot camps, we assist seniors with their essays and make sure they are presenting themselves as well as possible on the actual applications.
