College Consulting with a Difference
We offer a personalized and supportive experience for families and students preparing for college. Our mission is to help students not only gain acceptance into the right school but also to thrive once they are there.
​
Our practice focuses on two key areas:
-
Matching the student with higher education programs that are the best academic, social, and personal fit for their needs, strengths, and preferences.
-
Developing college readiness skills to help students thrive in their chosen institution. Our tailored approach addresses self-awareness, self-advocacy, social communication, time management, and more, based on individual needs.
​
We work closely with families to develop a comprehensive plan, guiding them through the often overwhelming college process. Our goal is to set the student up for holistic success - intellectually, emotionally, socially, and in terms of independence.
​
Our mission is to empower diverse learners and facilitate their success in higher education.
