My goal is to make the college search and admissions process as stress-free and as straightforward as possible for you and your student.  I’ll help your student present themselves in the best possible way as they apply.  I offer a variety of services to fit your needs.  Whether your student is a freshman or a senior, contact me!

Focus Consultation:

  • Conversation with parents/student (together or separately, according to preference)
  • Test planning and score review
  • Transcript review and academic planning
  • Extracurricular Involvement review

  • Written summary of recommendations, including: recommended course schedule, testing recommendations, how to obtain teacher recommendations, and initial college list recommendations based on above factors (list will include info about costs, size,  financial aid/scholarships, interview requirements, and detailed school descriptions)

College Chats (Locally):

I LOVE sitting down and talking with small groups to discuss the college search and admissions experience.  I can customize information to your specific group and answer individual questions.  This could be a:

  • neighborhood or parent group
  • PTA
  • school club
