Applying to college can be hard and overwhelming, but if you know the right steps to take, the process is straightforward.

The College Admissions Game Has Changed

I have been designing the futures of college-bound students for over 30 years. The college admissions game has changed dramatically over the past 3 decades, and the changes in the past few years have been dizzying.

But there are a few basic "rules" that never change, no matter how much the college admissions "game" changes.

And that's what I'm good at – deciphering the changes and helping you find your best strategy to help your child find the perfect college fit that leads them to a different future!

At the end of this Crash Course, your child will be able to:

Here's What Others Have Said About Our Email Crash Course:

“I have read books and listened to podcasts for hours and not learned as much in such a short period of time as I did with your emails. All the lessons were simple to follow and just made sense." Sara (mother of a student going to UC Santa Barbara)

"My parents signed me up for this crash course and I at first didn't pay attention, thinking they were just more boring lectures. But then I saw the lesson on how to write a memorable essay and couldn't believe how easy you made the process. That lesson made me searching through my emails to find the other lessons. Your stuff was really, really helpful!" Jon (student going to UCLA) 

"I was pretty overwhelmed with the entire college process. Learning the basics like you laid out in this course made me feel a lot less stress and made it easier for me to process everything else that was out there. I subscribed to your newsletter as well and love the in-depth analysis you provide." Jerry (father of twins going to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and University of Chicago)
