Key Messages
Focus on finding an environment where every child can be successful. Nationwide, 25% of first–year students fail to return for a second year. After six years, only 50% have earned at least an undergraduate degree. Through advanced planning and ongoing consulting, we set students up for a successful college experience and help families avoid a costly mistake.
Open doors to more opportunities. There are more than 3,600 colleges and universities to choose from in the United States. – and they are not all the same. Too often, students limit their choice of colleges to the ones their friends attend or those close to home. We help them realize opportunities that could be a good or even better fit than the colleges they originally considered. We have personally visited hundreds of campuses across the US to help students find the best fit.
Create more family time. Getting into the best suited college can be very time consuming. We handle the work involved with the college application requirements, financial aid options and deadlines. The attention to detail can be overwhelming – especially for kids and their families with demanding schedules.
Unmatched Knowledge and Skills. College Connectors uses a team approach when working with families. As each of us has unique specialized knowledge, we can each step in where necessary. As a member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, we are required to visit more than 100 colleges before becoming a member. Because we are familiar with a multitude of colleges, we can present students with a wider selection of possibilities. We also know how to talk to students who may be afraid or confused about what direction they want to take. We will help the entire family feel confident about the college decision.
