The Goal
Preparing for college is an exciting time for many high school students and their families. Choosing the right campus environment that will best meet the goals and interests of your student is an important decision. Options abound and factors like geographic location, campus size, programs offered, and affordability should all be considered. Exploring majors, researching campuses and being aware of important deadlines (e.g. applications, ACT&SAT, FAFSA) can place your student on the best path towards realizing their college dreams.My goal is to provide comprehensive guidance and planning for the college selection, application and transition process. My background as a school counselor, and the expertise gained from working with colleges across the U.S., will enable me to thoroughly prepare your child. I have a passion for helping young people accomplish their educational goals and take great pride in offering assistance with integrity and responsibility.
Moving away from home and adjusting to a new academic environment is a challenge for many first year college students; in fact, nearly one in three will leave college before the second year. For this reason, the option exists for my coaching and support to extend throughout the freshmen year. The “Duffy Plan” will navigate your student through the admissions process and promote a successful transition to college.
