COLLEGE PLANNING
Finding, applying to, and selecting the right college is now a more complicated and daunting
task than ever before. With the current generation of baby boomers�� kids, there are more
applications for any given college than ever before in U.S. history. This demand has
contributed to skyrocketing tuition and unprecedented competition. In this challenging
environment, it is especially important to make thoughtful, well-researched plans for the
student’s college career. An assessment at the pre-college stage of the student’s life can
help identify strengths, areas for support and personal factors that will help in the college
planning and selection process.
College can be one of the best or worst times in life. The right match of school and student
can lead to optimal learning and life-preparation along with cherished memories and
friendships. The wrong match can lead to all kinds of negative outcomes, including mental
health concerns, legal and financial or family problems. By helping the student, and parents,
get a good grasp on strengths and vulnerabilities, an assessment at the pre-college stage,
or if bewildering problems at college arise, can help everyone make best possible plans for
the future. Often an independent assessment is used as the bedrock for effective college
planning and selection. While many schools attempt to do their best to assist in the college
planning and selection process, most families need additional and enhanced help with this
life-altering task. Our assessment and consultation services can serve as an invaluable aide
at this critical stage of life.
