The college essay is an opportunity to share your unique voice and show colleges what matters to you. Let us help you tell your story in a way that is authentic and showcases your core values.
Hourly Services
(7th - 12th grades)
$400
Hourly meetings can be helpful for early college planning (7th-8th graders) to address course selection, organizational systems, goal setting, and transitioning to high school.
We also work with 9th and 10th grade students who need assistance with course selection, summer program information and support, and extracurricular guidance, and for 11th and 12th graders who just want a little extra help.
Music Support
We can support your application to music performance, music education, jazz studies, composition, music technology/production, and music business programs.
The college application process can be daunting. From building a realistic college list to helping students apply for scholarships and understanding financial aid packages, we provide a personal and high level of service to guide students through the process and ultimately land at the best “fit” school.
Our Whole Child College Counseling™ approach to the college process is full-service and hands-on. What that means for students and families is that we are there to guide and support throughout the entire journey. What seems like a simple and straightforward process sometimes isn't. Our approach focuses on synthesizing a holistic view of the self for the college application journey, helping students and families reduce stress throughout the process while also helping them come to terms with personal identity and various educational needs, making us highly in demand.
In addition to being available for text/phone/email support for both parents and students regularly, this is what you can expect within each comprehensive package.
This is by no means an exhaustive list.
