The college planning process is one of the most consequential and time-sensitive experiences a family goes through. The decisions made during this period about where to apply, how to position a student academically, how to complete financial aid forms, and how to evaluate award letters, directly affect both outcomes and costs.
Most families are navigating this process without a clear roadmap. They are researching independently, making decisions under pressure, and often discovering what they should have done earlier and are now too late to act on it.
Families who work with a college planning professional consistently report feeling more confident, more organized, and less overwhelmed. They also tend to make better-informed decisions about where to apply and how to evaluate the financial outcomes which often translates into meaningful savings on the total cost of college.
Both programs provide personalized guidance through the admissions process and financial aid forms. The difference is scope. Concierge focuses on core admissions strategy, college list development, application planning, and financial aid form guidance. Concierge Plus includes all of that plus standardized test preparation, essay support, outside scholarship assistance, and LinkedIn profile development for students.
The best starting point is a 45-minute initial consultation. During that conversation, we discuss your student’s academics and your family’s financial situation, which helps clarify which schools are realistic targets for both admissions and financial aid, and what level of support would be most useful.
Earlier is almost always better. Families who begin the process in 9th or 10th grade have more time to make decisions that shape both admissions outcomes and financial aid eligibility. That said, families who come to us junior or senior year can still benefit significantly. It is never too late to get organized and strategic.
Yes. If your student is in 8th grade or early high school, there are meaningful steps you can take now to strengthen their academic profile and position your family’s finances more favorably before the college application process begins.
The 45-minute consultation covers your student’s current academic profile, your family’s financial situation, and what types of schools are realistic targets for both admissions and financial aid. You will leave with a clearer sense of your options and what level of ongoing support, if any, would be most helpful.
Yes. Payment plans are available for both the Concierge and Concierge Plus programs. You can find payment plan options listed on the individual service pages or reach out directly to ask about what is available.
Individual services are available for specific needs, including SAT and ACT test preparation, essay support, scholarship assistance, and LinkedIn profile development for students. These can be added on to an existing program or accessed as standalone services.
If you are not sure which option is the right fit, the best first step is a conversation. Schedule a 45-minute consultation and we will help you figure out exactly where your family stands and what kind of support makes the most sense.
