The Problem
Many students feel lost in a one-size-fits-all college process. With high student-to-counselor ratios, the focus often shifts from personal growth to generic application mechanics. This leaves a critical gap, where students are prepared to apply to college, but not fully prepared to discover their purpose or own their story.
