Finding the best fit

Sometimes a parent's alma mater, a top ranked college, or the popular trending college are not the right places for your student. Cultural nuances, personality traits and life experience all come into play. But how does a student evaluate the best match and make his or her own choice? Parents and friends will have advice and opinions which often make the decision even more confusing. This is the most important reason to use a consultant. Let us help navigate your student's exploratory process by employing strategic approach, planning college visits and sharing relevant resources for developing insights into the institutions on your student's list to simplify his/her search.

How does your daughter or son stand out from among other qualified applicants?

Admissions representatives across the country have a huge volume of applications to read every week. They are looking for those unique qualities that make one applicant stand apart from the hundreds of high school seniors seeking a spot in the freshman class of their dream school. Your student has a story to tell. Let us help tell it in the most effective way.

Telling Your Story

Each of our clients is an individual. These young women and men bring with them a background that is shaped by family, friends, challenges faced and obstacles overcome. What we find interesting is that quite often our clients struggle to pull together the threads of their life experiences into their own dynamic stories.

Identifying and telling that story is a significant, critical part of differentiating yourself from hundreds of other students applying to the same colleges as you are. Your essay is a chance to define your brand in an impactful and memorable way.

That is why we will invest focused time with you and your family. We will ask you the right questions. We will partner with you to bring into focus all the amazing, varying facets of your life experience and weave them together into a relatable narrative that represents the best of who you are.

According to the National Association of College Admission Counseling, more than half of high school guidance counselors (54%) reported that their counseling department spent less than 20% of their time on college readiness, selection, and applications. Make sure your child gets the quality guidance he/she deserves.
