What can you be doing remotely to make your college application stand out to admission officers
College selection is an exciting and overwhelming time for both students and their parents. Navigating the college process and the many choices can seem daunting. The Collegiate Advisory Group can help students navigate the process of planning, exploring, applying to, and selecting the 'best fit' undergraduate and graduate college.
Reviewing and assisting with the high school application process, course selection guidance, GPA modeling to maximize scores, and standardized test planning.
Choosing the best fit school including development of the college list, managing the college admission process, essay review, interview preparation, and understanding the financial aid process.
Given today's hectic lifestyle, it is difficult to be an expert in everything. With the cost of out-of-state public schools averaging almost $40,000/year and the cost of some private schools exceeding $70,000/year, parents and students are making a significant financial investment in college. In fact, paying for college is one of the largest investments an individual will make next to the purchase of a home. Using the services of independent education consultants such as the Collegiate Advisory Group, who are experts in navigating the college admissions and financial aid processes, can help parents and students ensure that they are making the most informed and cost effective college decision.
Did you know that the average high school college counselor spends less than one hour with each student over the course of their four years in high school?
