Services

A comprehensive package or a selective list of options for  more narrowed assistance are available. 
Finding the right fit takes time.


If you would like your student’s academic profile, goals, interests and character to become criteria for developing a selection of best fit colleges then committing to the comprehensive package is an appropriate choice.

Complimentary Meeting

If you want to learn more about the available services and overall process we can arrange a complimentary session to review your family’s needs and discuss the general plan that we would follow for a successful journey. No specific guidance regarding the college admission process will be provided during this meeting.

Comprehensive Package

This package is appropriate for juniors as well as seniors.  Please note that if our work together does not begin until the first day of the senior year or later, a higher rate will apply due to the narrowed time-frame.Freshmen and sophomores can contract to begin work the summer prior to the junior year.  Hourly appointments for academic and activity planning are available.

The comprehensive package includes up to seven face-to-face appointments and unlimited phone conversations or email exchanges. Because each student is unique, so is the process that we will experience together.  You can expect that some appointments will wrap up within an hour while others will be more lengthy. Details of the comprehensive package include but are not limited to:

  • Review of the overall application process including financial aid
  • Student and parent evaluations
  • Assessment of the student’s high school academic and extra-curricular portfolio
  •  Discussion of types of colleges to target based on my student evaluation
  • Presentation of the college list based on my research
  • Deadline management for essays, applications, financial aid
  • Application assistance and guidance (I do not complete the applications)
  • School visit and interview preparation
  • Evaluation of schools after the visits and narrowing the college list
  • Essay guidance and editing (I do not write the essay)

Additional face-to-face appointments can be scheduled at an hourly rate once the seven included appointments are exhausted.

Contact Me for the current fee schedule.
