Our Comprehensive Package takes the student and their family step by step through the college search and application process.

This service includes up to 40 hours of consulting time and 15 schools.

*** Please note that this service is NOT the same as our Scholarship Packages that have customized scholarship lists. Your counselor will give you recommendations and some help to guide you with private scholarships, but you will need to find and apply to these scholarships on your own.
*** You are allowed to apply to one highly competitive school with the Comprehensive Package. If you would like to apply to multiple highly competitive schools, you will need an Ivy League Package. After September 30th, the cost of the Comprehensive Package increases to an Ivy League package as the timeline becomes constricted and requires more scheduling time.
If you don’t think you need all of our services, you can choose to purchase blocks of time. These blocks of time can be used for any of our services in any combination you choose. See the Comprehensive Package for a full list of admissions services.
What can you get with five hours of time? A good example of a five hour package is a college list. You could also get some financial aid help and some brain picking time. Keep in mind that five hours is really not a lot of time, so this is a package for people who have everything mostly done on their own and just need a little help.
If you aren’t sure what you need, please schedule a free consultation call with us and we will be happy to walk you through the process.
If you don’t think you need all of our services, you can choose to purchase blocks of time. These blocks of time can be used for any of our services in any combination you choose. See the Comprehensive Package for a full list of admissions services.
What can you get with ten hours of time? A good example of what most people purchase a ten hour package for is for essay help or for people with children in middle school or early in high school who aren’t ready to start the application process but who need advising to get ready.
If you aren’t sure what you need, please schedule a free consultation call with us and we will be happy to walk you through the process.
Our Ivy League Package includes all the same services contained in our Comprehensive Package with up to 50 hours of consulting time. Due to the large number of essays needed to apply to multiple highly competitive schools, you will need an Ivy League Package if you would like to apply to two or more highly competitive schools up to eighteen schools. This service includes:
