for Applying Seniors
As your student transitions from junior to senior year, your base counseling plan converts seamlessly into 1-on-1 strategic guidance to navigate the college application process. Counseling sessions are integrated with the Senior Application Course for the most efficient delivery of information. Students follow up with Jennifer to make decisions based on their unique profile and target college list. We continue to meet twice a month for 30-minute sessions, where we brainstorm essay topics and develop an essay outline. However, essay review and polishing is best tackled digitally, where the "Track Changes" feature allows Jennifer to suggest detailed revisions. As a result, all students are strongly encouraged to select one of the "Add-on Packages" below, based on the number of colleges they are applying to.
Base Counseling Plan: $525/month (requires annual contract)
What You'll Get
Full access to the Senior Application Course -- an on-demand, 9-session video course stepping you through the admissions process and sharing Jennifer's key insights from 20 years of experience.

Following each meeting, a detailed meeting summary & 'Take Action' items
