Student Profile
When we begin working with a student in high school, we learn as much about the student as we can. Through the development of a student profile, we then help them understand their student identity. This process includes:
- Reviewing the student profile questionnaire, transcripts, and standardized test scores
- Discussing the student’s extracurricular activities and personal interests
- Discussing the parents’ specific requirements and needs
- Establishing short-term goals for succeeding in high school
- Establishing long-term goals for getting into colleges
- Creating a student profile that encompasses all of the information gathered

Establishing School List
With over 4000 accredited institutions of higher learning just in the USA and more abroad, it can be difficult to choose. Our deep knowledge of the field and our extensive experience connecting students to the right schools ensures that we will choose the universities and colleges that best fit your student. This process includes:
- Suggesting schools matching the student’s profile based on the student assessment
- Providing an initial college list of schools within our three-tier system (Reach, Target, Likely)
- Teaching effective ways of research and school outreach
- Deciding on a final list of ten (10) schools to which the student will apply
