College Roadmap Package

A College Overview for 9th or 10th Grade Students and Parents

 

Getting into college today is not what it used to be.  And when it comes to navigating the admissions process, the last thing you want is a surprise. Students and parents need to understand--as early as possible--what colleges are looking for today in order to effectively prepare for the numerous choices to be made throughout high school.

 

Let us educate you about the current college landscape and what a prepared student looks like.  We will give you a preview of the key tasks you will need to complete and  choices you will have to make throughout each year of high school.   And, of course, we will provide practical advice to help you plot your course. 

 

Our College Roadmap Package includes a series of four one-hour sessions that cover these key topics:

• Academic planning

• Testing strategy and prep

• Resume building

• Financial considerations

• Assessment of interests

• Virtual footprint management

• Supporting your student through the process
