    The Roadmap to College sets you off in the right direction.

    • Thinking about college?
    • Unsure where to begin?
    • Considering college planning services, but not convinced you really need them?
    • Wondering how you stack up?

    Our introductory service gives you the tools and information to set your college GPS–and move confidently toward your educational future.

    We efficiently and effectively gather the most pertinent information from students and families. We then analyze this information and present our ideas and strategies in a personalized meeting. We give you thoughtful, personalized information to help you get the most of your high school experience–and achieve success in the college admissions process.

    It’s the best college admission advice–and a great value.

    A single meeting does it all

    • Academic planning in high school
    • Standardized testing strategies (SAT/ACT)
    • Evaluation of your extracurricular activities
    • Ideas for choosing the right colleges

    With this roadmap in hand, your family will be better able to determine what sorts of advising services you might need in the coming months and years.  Some may need quite a lot, while others will be able to use this “Roadmap to College” as the foundation for success in high school and beyond.

    No matter if your student is aiming for the Ivy League (e.g., Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth), or if your main aim is to reduce the cost of college, or if your student is a star athlete hoping to play in college, or if learning differences are a factor in your choice of colleges, or if your student is a late bloomer trying to figure out what would be the best fit for the future, we can help create a plan for success.
