College Planning

Believe it or not, you’re probably doing something to prepare yourself for college each and every day you attend high school! From finding a support network, to taking challenging classes, to attending sports practices, you’re well on your way to becoming a successful college applicant.


College Prep Timeline

It's never to early to start planning.  Use this timeline to help prepare for college.

College Readiness

There are many factors to consider when determining college readiness. Some of these may be tangible, and some may be intangible. If a student is not “ready” to go away to college, there are alternatives available.

Choosing a College, Major and Career

College selection is the most overlooked part of the application process. Most students choose their college with no strategy for choice.

Applications

The process of applying to several colleges is very stressful for high school seniors who are already weighted down with school work and activities. It is a very time consuming process.  We encourage students to begin the process the summer before the senior year. Colleges have different application requirements and different deadlines and we teach the student to keep track of the information for each school. We help make this stressful process easier and help the student achieve better results!

Atheletes

Every year, thousands of high school athletes sit by their phones waiting for college coaches to call. Some will get called, but thousands of talented athletes will not. Do not wait. Take action before it is too late. You can increase your chances of being recruited, of competing at the college level and of getting a sports scholarship.

College Visits

A campus visit is your opportunity to get a firsthand view of a college. A college catalog, brochure or website can only show you so much. To really get a feel for the college, you need to walk around the quad, sit in on a class and visit the dorms.
