Let Us Be Your College Archway

We know how to take the stress and uncertainty out of applying to college by offering expert mentorship and support throughout the entire process so you are well-prepared and well-positioned to apply and be accepted to your ideal, best-fit school.

We will provide a detailed assessment of the student’s interests, activities, aptitudes and needs in order to conduct extensive research and develop a customized list of “best fit” colleges.

Our college advisors will offer you expert assessment and advice on your academic course selection and preparation for AP, ACT, SAT and other standardized tests to strengthen your chances of admission to your schools of choice. 

We will offer full-service college application support for the Common Application, U.C. Application and more, including detailed support of personal statement and supplemental essay development and review. 

We work closely with each student and their family to help them understand and calculate costs of schools, assess their financial options, and identify and apply for aid and scholarships.

Our advisors provide effective time-management tools, planning and support at every step of the application journey. Whether it's scheduling college visits and preparing for interviews or meeting application deadlines and offering discerning advice in the final college selection stage, our advisors are there to guide each student and family to their best-fit college acceptance.

In this small group workshop we will share important strategies and research on how to identify and apply to your ideal fit "reach", "target" and "likely" colleges to maximize your chances of acceptance. We will also introduce and begin work on the updated 2026-27 Common Application, including developing an impactful activity list and other key parts of the application to set you up for success!
