DISCOVERY
The discovery phase is the first and most important part of the college admissions process as students discover themselves and how they match with colleges and careers.
ASSESSMENTS TOOLS:
Personality, aptitude, and student interest assessments help students better understand their strengths, interests, and dreams. We use this information to build the college list and as the foundation for essays and applications.
RESUME:
Listing their previous success, honors, activities, and achievements, students build a resume and portfolio of accomplishments to help organize their experiences.
ACADEMIC & SUMMER PLANNING:
We provide in-depth guidance on current and future course selections and summer planning.
During the build phase, we begin to construct a comprehensive list of potential college matches.
RESEARCH:
Utilizing sophisticated data, we teach students how to research colleges, fully invest in the process, understand the opportunities, and deepen their preferences.
TIME MANAGEMENT:
Each student will have access to a private student portal designed to organize their reports, testing, college list, deadlines, and application requirements.
COLLEGE LIST:
Using the assessment results and the student's further self-discovery, we will select criteria for choosing specific schools to include geography, school culture, tuition and cost, majors, career prospects, athletics, and extracurriculars. This phase begins in the fall of junior and is completed by the end of the junior year with a list of 7 to 10 schools.
BUILD
PRESENTATION
Students, through self-discovery, begin developing their unique personal stories to showcase their best selves through the applications and essays.
APPLICATIONS:
The application is the opportunity for students to shine and differentiate. We guide them on navigating the common app, coalition app, and school-specific applications.
ESSAYS:
We begin essay brainstorming work on our first day. Throughout our time, we will explore topics, craft the message, edit, rewrite, and refine, so they tell the story of their unique self.
