The business of college admissions often uses fear as a marketing tactic. In an effort to justify their services, independent counselors and essay editing companies tend to emphasize the increasing improbability of gaining admission into a highly selective institution. It’s harder than ever to get into a good college, they will tell you. Only we can help you stand out!
In truth, almost all students are capable of gaining admission into a “dream school” that meets their academic, social, and financial needs.
I founded Capital College Planning to help students find, prepare for, and get into these schools. More specifically, I teach students (and their families):
The nitty-gritty details of how colleges make admissions decisions
How to develop the habits and routines that will prepare them college
How to identify the majors and careers that fit their interests and aptitudes
How to build a list of “dream schools”
The essential steps for completing a strong application
Advice for thriving as an undergraduate student
I am not interested in helping anyone cheat the system. I am, however, interested in providing straightforward information and advice that will demystify the admissions process and make it feel less overwhelming. Applying to college is a major, time-consuming milestone—but that doesn’t mean it has to be a stressful one.
