Find Your Path To Follow Your Dreams.

The college application process has changed a lot over the years. It seems like schools are harder to get into than ever before.

How many AP classes should you take?

Is it better to get an A in an on-level class or challenge yourself and possibly get a lower grade in an AP class?

How should you spend your free time? What activities should you pursue?

What do test-optional and test-flexible mean? How does it affect your application?

How do you build a college list that is right for you?

Just the mere mention of college applications can invoke fear in students and parents.

But I have some good news.

You don’t have to figure it out on your own.
