This course will guide students in applying for colleges and universities. The teaching style will be in a group-setting and interactive. We will also discuss things like possible majors in college and the application process.

I will help the students select the best colleges and universities to apply to and guide them in the application process.

My teaching approach is as follows:
      * An outline of a top-level plan of action such as which colleges you want to apply to, maybe 5 Ivy League Schools, an early-action school, and 3 average schools as a backup
      * A timeline of when you will apply, the order of application
      * Gathering the requirements such as letters of recommendation and from whom.
      * Plan to complete taking your Test Prep exams such as the SATs and ACTs
      * Complete the applications

Learners can expect a very well-organized, clear and progressive picture and process of applying to the best colleges that fit their goals and aspirations.

Required background knowledge for successful completion of the college applications are usually attained from Grade 10. So, 10th Graders or those in higher Grades are well-prepared.
