The Academy is a one year program that guides high school juniors and seniors through the college admissions process. In addition to group meetings and workshops, students receive monthly action items backed with detailed instruction and resources to support each activity. We customize each student’s college list and review each college essay giving concrete feedback students find invaluable. Our process helps students define what they want in a college, build a college list and application timeline, complete well written essays, and submit on-time applications.
The Academy is led by a group of industry professionals who believe that supporting students through the application process helps to ensure a successful match between students and colleges with higher graduation rates. We work with high achieving students at under resourced public high schools in the U.S.
