Why counseling

College admissions have never been more competitive.
The numbers speak for themselves.

The average school counselor simply doesn't have the capacity for a personal approach. Professional counseling changes the outcome.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions parents ask us most often.

When should we start college admissions counseling?

Ideally by 10th or 11th grade. At minimum, begin by junior year so there's enough time for testing and college research. We've also helped seniors in the fall of 12th grade. Earlier is better, but it's never too late.

How do test-optional policies affect strategy?

Test-optional means a college doesn't require test scores, but a strong score can still help if submitted. If your teen is likely to score well, we encourage taking the exams. If not, we focus on grades, essays, and recommendations.

Can you help with scholarships and financial aid?

Absolutely. We help identify the right scholarships and polish those applications. Many of our students earn scholarships or grants. Maximizing financial aid is a key part of our strategy.

Do you work with universities abroad (UK, EU, USA, etc.)?

Yes. We have experience with admissions worldwide. We guide you through the UCAS system for the UK, help with required exams, and keep track of varying deadlines. We tailor the process to each education system.
