Parents and Student Orientation Sessions:
So Everyone is on the Same Page
As part of the College Prep Academy, we hold workshops to help you and your student understand:
- The timing and choice of the appropriate admissions tests: PSAT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, ACT
- What getting into the best colleges and university will require
- How to stand out from the crowd
Becoming the Ideal Applicant
We start working one-on-one with students as early as freshman or sophomore year. This way we can provide guidance on:
- Course selection
- Extra-curricular activities
- Community service involvement
- Summer work, internships, and courses
Finding the Best College
Searching and selecting the colleges that will best meet the needs of your student can be a daunting process. Let us put our expertise to work for you.
Our approach includes:
- Identifying and defining the different types of colleges and universities that match your student's interests and academic profile
- Demystifying the process to determine the best fit by using a variety of print and on-line resources
- Exploring the options for deferred enrollment, Gap-Year, or Bridge-Year Programs
