We hope these resources help.  You’ll find even more on our Resources page (keep checking back as we add things all the time!).  You can subscribe to our newsletter on the “Contact Us” page, and you can see all of our archived newsletters on this page.  We also invite you to “Like” our Facebook page, where we post lots of interesting articles and information.

Check out our FREE COLLEGE ADMISSION CLINIC, where you can dive deeply into a variety of topics related to college admission, with videos, blog posts and downloadable resources you can watch and read at your own pace.

If you feel you’d like some extra one-on-one guidance as your child goes through the process, feel free to get in touch through the “Contact Us” page.  We’re happy to help!
