College-Specific Gap Analysis (1 hour)
Led by a director, the College-Specific Gap Analysis (GAP) meeting allows students to see what’s required to achieve their goals before committing to further counseling. In teens, this ability to see and choose encourages much greater independent decision-making, commitment, ownership, self-assurance, and enthusiasm for the college planning journey ahead.

Based on the gap analysis and the time remaining until college application deadlines:
- No additional counseling is necessary for your goals
- Custom hourly solution for fleeting, small needs
- College planning assistance only (hourly vs package)
- College application assistance only (hourly vs package)
- Both planning and application assistance (hourly vs package for each)
- Transfer planning is necessary (hourly vs package)
Get the solution that bridges the gaps without excess. All pricing available here (packages at bottom of page).
B. Mutual Fit Assessment
Student/family fit is also evaluated for continued counseling (i.e. to ensure the student is engaged, vocal, and not being coerced, sidelined, silenced, or antagonized by parental involvement). We deeply apologize the state of our industry requires this candor.
