You fill out my questionnaires, and I analyze them to determine what might be a good match in terms of colleges. We meet for at least an hour and talk about the student's profile, possible college matches, and the next steps. I follow up with a list of colleges and a plan for the future. I will help you launch your college process and then allow you to continue the process independently. We will also schedule a second meeting at your convenience.
