“Future Focused is THE reason my son got in to the college of his choice”

Read a parent's letter about our college counseling program»

How does it work?

Future Focused offers three different college counseling programs depending on the age of the student:

  • For sophomores, we offer a "Get Started Early" program that is uniquely designed to incorporate goal-setting and academic accountability with very specific 'what to be doing now' college guidance.

  • For juniors and seniors, we offer the "College Focused" program, which walks students and parents through every step of the college selection and application process.

  • For students in their senior year, we have an expedited program called, “Senior Success” to help them write stellar essays, manage the application deadlines and apply to the appropriate range of colleges.

All programs begin with a two hour consultation with the parents and the student. During this session, the college counselor creates and provides each family with an individualized plan, and an in-depth look at the college process. You will walk away knowing what colleges are looking for and feeling confident that your student will be expertly guided through the process of finding, applying, and selecting his or her dream school.
