Jamie's process includes aiding the student in deciding on a major and then assisting them to pick a list of colleges that will provide them the best education in their field of study. Remember, the whole reason they are going to college is to get a job!  Our goal is to place them in a reputable school to facilitate them getting a job soon after college.

By mentoring the family through the college visitation process, Jamie explains what to look for while on campus, who you should be speaking with, and what questions to ask.

Jamie works with the student in preparing for the college admission process. The more organized your admission packet, the sooner the college can respond to your admission request. You will not be considered for financial aid until the admission request has been accepted. (The student is a critical part of the process, some colleges weigh heavily on the student's participation in the admission process.)

Once the student is accepted, Jamie will work to identify some of the best private scholarships available and coach the family on how to work the system to shake loose gift money. She will tell you what to watch out for when taking out loans or accepting some grants. (Loans account for one-half of all financial aid!).
