1. Foundation & Planning  

Students complete a questionnaire to help me understand their background, personality, strengths, and goals. We’ll then have a kickoff meeting to discuss the process, map out a timeline, and create a personalized tracking system.

This phase is fully customizable depending on where the student is in their journey, whether they’re just getting started, diving into test prep, or ready to apply. 

2. Exploration & Readiness

We’ll explore college preferences, develop a balanced college list, and track deadlines and requirements. I help students reflect on interests, prepare résumés, and organize activities. We’ll also discuss testing timelines, and I offer targeted SAT/ACT prep for the English and Reading sections.

3. Essay Development 

When it’s time to write, we’ll brainstorm standout essay ideas and strategies. Together, we’ll develop an outline to guide the writing process and ensure a strong structure from the start. Students then draft their responses, and I provide detailed feedback and revision suggestions. After their final adjustments, I’ll conduct a comprehensive review to ensure essays are polished and ready for submission.

4. Ongoing Support & Final Review

Throughout the journey, students and families can reach out via email or text for questions, feedback, or encouragement. We’ll meet as needed to review progress, clarify next steps, and keep everything on track. Before applications go out, we’ll do a final review together to ensure every piece is polished and submitted with confidence.
