FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How are you different from my high school counselor?

High school counselors are HARD workers. Their average caseload is 1 counselor to 250 students. They are working with the school, students, colleges to make sure everything is in on time. Since they have so much on their plate they aren’t always able to give the students individualized attention. That’s where we come in. We work with students to figure out their goals and where they will thrive.
When should we start?

We work with students as early as 8th or 9th grade to begin the exploration process but we’re happy to work with students up until the beginning of 12th grade.
How often do we meet?

Depends! Your first and second year of high school we’ll meet quarterly. Junior year we meet monthly and senior year we meet anywhere between 2-4 times a month.
What kind of students do you work with?

We’ve worked with students who have 2.5s up to 4.0s and everything in between. We’re very proud that we meet our students where they are & work with them to figure out their goals.
How does the school list process work?

Our goal is for your student to have choices and in order to have choices we must have a well balanced list. We have many conversations to figure out what is important to your students and matching schools with their wants. With 3,000 public and private schools we feel very confident that we can find 10 schools where you students would be happy & successful.
