A college admissions and affordability advisor facilitates and clarifies the college application process for students and their families. Consultants utilize their years of experience, extensive training, and substantial research to help their clients find colleges & universities that will best fit them socially, academically, and financially.  They will also consider the student's personality, needs, and learning style. The personalized attention and TLC that I give to my students is unrivaled.  With the cost of college increasing over 440% over the last 20 years, I also aid in the strategies to help reduce the cost of college and pay for college without taking on student loans. College consultants assist students in transitioning from high school to the post secondary opportunity of their choosing.

While the majority of our students come from North and South Carolina, we have worked with students in almost all 50 states via telephone and Zoom video conferencing.  Many of my clients that live down the street from my office prefer to meet virtually. I have designed my business to give us the flexibility to work with families throughout the U.S.

You can spend countless hours searching websites and reviewing college guidebooks only to come away more confused. It is easy to waste precious time on these sites and still make a poor college match. A poor college selection can result in higher dropout rates and transfers after the first year. Most websites only provide a limited amount of information about colleges and universities, with most of the data being general and statistical.

While working with my team, you will experience less stress and enjoy participating in your child's college search. We can personalize the process by helping students understand the most critical elements in the college selection process. I give them a step-by-step system to follow, resulting in a college list that best matches their individual needs. We provide personalized information, proven strategies, and objective insights to eliminate stress and gain the competitive edge needed to navigate your way through every aspect of the college planning process.

While we cannot guarantee that scholarships and merit aid will be awarded, I will teach you the different forms of financial aid. I will also identify which types of financial aid you might qualify for to help reduce the cost of college. I will give you specific, actionable solutions for you to follow so you can make college an affordable reality. My proven system works for any student from any financial background. We will consider grants and scholarships, federal, state, and local government aid, educational institutions, philanthropic organizations, corporations, the colleges' own money, and other sources when we develop your plan.

We have found that the majority of scholarship money a student receives will be awarded by the college or university in which the student enrolls. I will develop a personalized, targeted college list that maximizes the chances of receiving the various forms of financial aid. Last year, our students were offered nearly fifteen million dollars in scholarships and grants.

However, we are NOT a "scholarship search" company. But we do give you proven strategies that are unique to your family on how to identify, select, and maximize various forms of aid to reduce the cost of college.
