The Preliminary Session
At this time, we discuss the student’s secondary school program ( i.e. transcript, standardized testing, extracurricular activities, job experience etc.) and college interests and goals. At the conclusion of the meeting, we prepare the preliminary college list of approximately 10 to 12 colleges which seem best suited to the interests of the student.

Individualized Sessions
The subsequent sessions are done one-on-one with the student to discuss planning college visits, scheduling standardized testing, researching college websites, preparing college applications etc. Parents may also schedule sessions to discuss additional issues such as finding merit scholarships. Many families prefer to work with College and More, Inc. in the junior and senior years; however, some prefer to begin earlier to do more long-range planning in terms of course selection beginning in the ninth and tenth grades.
