College Admissions Assistance
College planning and college admissions has changed dramatically in the last 25 years. Students spend an average of 38 minutes working with their high school counselor discussing their college search and the college application process. Most high school counselors work with more than 350 students. That is why families often want additional help with the college admissions process. With the current recession, we still need to consider the schools a student chooses and the chances for acceptance. However, paying for college and making college affordable has become an even larger problem.

"We were totally frustrated helping Caitlin find the right schools and couldn't get over how much college admissions has changed. We needed a college guide. Your help with the college essays and college applications really gave her confidence that she was sending her best to each school. Caitlin really enjoyed working with you. Thanks for for all your time and effort."
