AMTRACK HELPS FAMILIES WITH COLLEGE TOURS

As the summer gets closer, so do the ideas that it might be a good time for students and their families to tour college campuses before making the final decision on what schools they might like to attend.

This year, Amtrack and Collegia has partnered together to help families make tours affordable by offering a promotion of "buy one ticket, and get the other for 50% off".  It is available to this years 10rh and 11th grade classes who will be juniors and seniors in the fall.  What a great way to visit schools, spend time with your family, and see the country.

Students must have their school ID with them to qualify for this program.  For more information, go to the Amtrack website.

College is a time of creativity, and it is wonderful when videos can come out to demonstrate some of the creative juices that can happen on a college campus, and off of it as well.. as 85% of any college experience is outside the classroom.

Here is the Harvard University Baseball Team showing you their creativity as they are traveling to a game venue.  Enjoy

Our "Applica-Phobia Boot Camp" is going to be held over 10 weeks during the summer and fall months only.  It will be a combination of both small group and individual counseling.  It will be designed to assist students select the colleges right for them and prepare and submit their applications.  Our comprehensive financial aid program will be available with this program to all of our families.

This program will allow students through demonstration and one on one admission exercises to see exactly how admissions offices look at students each year, and then take a step back and look at their curriculum and test scores in a new light, create an essay(s) that they will be proud to submit,  and let each student evaluate themselves from a different perspective.  

Our Second Program will be a 3- HOUR "Collegeology 101" Workshop.  This program is an interactive programs for both students and their families to learn about and examination the imperfect science of the college admissions process.  It aims to clarify and show students different ways to look at the admissions process and how to determine which path might be right for them.

100 DAYS OF SUMMER ARE ALMOST HERE

This memorial day weekend, many of us celebrate in some fashion, as we all look to the wonderful and hot  "100 Days of Summer".  WArm summer days, BBQs (or bakes/roasts/grills-- depending on where you are in the country), vacations to wonderful venues, and the freedom to maybe sleep in each morning.

However, what does Summer mean for a High School or College Transfer Student?   Well--  it means graduations are here ( and you are getting closer to your goal),  school for this year is almost at a close and there is a three month break, and for perhaps JUNIORS who soon enough will be seniors --- the fear of  college applications is starting to kick into swing, as it is only 101 days till colleges and universities will be hounding with all kinds of sales pitches trying to encourage you to come to their school.

This is where THE COLLEGE ADMISSIONS CONSULTANT, Inc comes into play.  We know you have only 101 days till college applications hit the road running, and we want to take these 101 days to help you prepare, organize, ask questions, and think through the process before that time comes.

This summer we are starting a new program---   "Collegeology 101".     Our "Collegeology Workshop"TM  is an overview of what the entire college admissions process that we are offering to student across the Greater Los Angeles and Kern County Areas.  It is a 3-Hour Program nominally priced so that who ever you are you can attend.  This program is 3-Hours long and is priced at a nominal cost so that no matter where you fall on the financial scale, there is something for you and your family.

Your school counselors are wonderful professionals, however, there is only so much of them to go around and we can offer you more time.  Even if you have your counselor for five minutes,  it is not the time require in the admissions process when you are on the verge of making one of the most important decisions in your life. For others, their counselors may be cut  due to budget cuts in their schools.  Whatever you are confronted with,  our highly trained staff is here to help you.

Classes are being formed now and spaces are filling up.   If you are interested in attending this workshop... and we will have several, please email us at counselor@thecollegeadmissionsconsultant.com and give us your NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER, E-MAIL ADDRESS, and any special instructions or requirements you might have, and we will let you know when and where our program will be near your home.

Come learn how you can successfully prepare for your college applications and financial aid stress free!
