Academic Excellence

Focusing on maintaining a strong Grade Point Average is the first step in your college preparation. Colleges will consider your high school grades and courses the primary admissions factor. Taking challenging courses, including honors and Advanced Placement, will prepare you and help build your weighted GPA. These options demonstrate your academic rigor to colleges.


Focusing on Extracurricular Activities

Participating in extracurriculars that genuinely interest you and showcase your passions are highly important. Students will self-report their college application activities, including clubs, sports, volunteer work, leadership, and creative talents. Depth and commitment to a few activities are most valuable. Colleges want to see participation in these activities for several years. Building an authentic extracurricular resume that strategically enhances a student’s overall profile takes much time and commitment. We will discuss which activities make sense to pursue, given their interests.


Leadership Experiences

With a bit of brainstorming and preparation we can help you carve out some leadership roles for yourself. By providing some examples of high school leadership students can identify a few key positions in school clubs and volunteer work in their local community.
