Short of buying a home, the investment many parents make towards their children’s college educations will be the largest they make in their lives. As long as you have a strategy to pay for college and control what you can control, you have a high probability of success. The Client Care Center helps you protect your investment in your child’s education.

College Admissions Accountability Coaching
Additionally, College Admissions Accountability Coaching is an excellent solution for parents with a college bound student in situations where:
- The student/parents are somewhat overwhelmed or intimidated by the college admissions process
- The parents believe their child would benefit from one-on-one help
- The student may at times tend to procrastinate
- The student/parents may experience frustration and undue stress during the college search and admissions process
You may find the benefits of an admissions coach appealing. Coaches don’t do the work for the student; the student and coach collaborate to develop a schedule of required action items and the student willingly and enthusiastically completes all the necessary action items. This results in a timely completion of career assessments and college searches and typically leads to actual applications being completed ahead of schedule and with reduced tension, stress and frustration for parent and child.
The student takes ownership and control of the process for reasons that are important to him. This, combined with the coach being permitted by the child to hold them accountable for the completion of milestones, makes for a much smoother application experience. Regular communication with the parents apprises them of the status of action items. With College Admissions Accountability Coaching, there is no need for the student to feel undue pressure or frustration and stress is greatly reduced.
Not only is the student coached through career assessments and finding colleges that are likely to be a good academic, social and financial match, but they are also coached on:
- Contacting colleges
- Scheduling visits or connecting with students
- Registering for the Common Application or XAP
- Choosing and scheduling the right standardized test at the best time for them
- Researching and selecting essay topics, writing drafts and having them critiqued
- Securing letters of recommendation from the teachers that college admissions will respect
- Preparing for interviews
- Managing the many applications students have to apply to if they want to be accepted to the right college for the right reasons at the right price
- Meeting with their guidance counselor and following up on transcripts, midyear reports, etc.
- Evaluating the college decision
- And more!
The Premier PLUS service ensures that your student will manage the process in a way that will yield a great outcome for your family!
