Let’s break down David’s tested process.

Selection

In the Selection phase, David meets with the student and the parents. He’ll ask questions that help to identify which colleges are appropriate academic and social-emotional matches. David then presents the family with a list of schools and explains why they would be good choices. Families learn about the admissions process and begin to clarify and understand the student’s expectations and priorities.

Application

In the Application phase, David guides students through recommendations, test scores, transcripts, and the applications themselves with particular emphasis on essays. It is his intention to guide and empower students to take control of the process so that they understand how the applications work and are able to successfully complete the applications by themselves.

Acceptance

After the schools make their decisions, in the Acceptance phase, David continues to meet with families to discuss the best school to attend, first-year course selection, and the best use of the college years.
