College Ready Series
Our College Ready seminar series delves into the ins and outs of many different key factors related to college admission and how to leverage this knowledge into your own success. Each seminar session is approximately 90 minutes – including Q&A. Each of the following topics can be offered solo or mixed and matched for a half-day format. Seminar sessions can be delivered in-person or virtually.
Minimum participant head count: 25 people.
Admissions 101
Achieving admissions success first involves getting up to speed with today’s landscape and leveraging this knowledge to make smart foundational decisions before submitting a single college application. This session takes a deep dive into what goes into a college application, how colleges make their decisions, which admissions factors matter the most, and strategies to increase odds of acceptance success.
Dollars, Cents & College Affordability
A major part of making sense of best-fit college options places affordability directly into the center of the decision-making process. This session provides an understanding of college costs, understanding different types of financial aid, and specific strategies to lower overall college costs.
What’s In A Best Fit College?
There is an art and science behind creating a best-fit college application list. Rather than randomly choosing college options (or worse, simply relying on Top 25 lists), choosing your best fit is a combination of academics, social/cultural, learning, and financial preferences. Here, we explore how to identify your best fit colleges and conduct key research to solidify your college application list.
Scholarship Strategies & Secrets
Earning merit scholarships to fund your college education requires a bit of strategy as well. In this session, we explore how to tap into the often-advertised billions of dollars available for scholarships, selectively choose colleges that place scholarship on the table, and proven strategies that net students scholarship dollars.
