Why Hire a College Admissions Consultant?
Marie’s student-centered individual approach focuses on academic, social and financial fit where the student thrives, not just survives.
Together we will find the right college through thoughtful self assessments, building self esteem and confidence in your young adult.
Marie belongs to several professional organizations; attends conferences and visits 40+ schools nationwide each year to stay current on trends.
The College Application Process Can be Confusing...
...Marie's organized approach takes the stress of this complex process off your shoulders.
Unfortunately, school counselors are pulled in many directions and are unable to work closely with you through the complex college admissions and financial aid process. This gets in the way of college selection and scholarship opportunities.
When you hire Marie, you get Marie. She is with you every step of the way, never contracting out any element of the college search and application process.
