Academic Access’s comprehensive one-on-one guidance takes families through the entire college identification, search, and application process throughout their junior and senior years of high school.
Early meetings are devoted to helping students better identify what they want from college and which colleges best fit their needs, interests, and academic qualifications. We ask parents to join our conversation each step of the way as we map out the process and clarify our goals together. Joan and her team work with students to provide individual guidance and direction through each step of the college admissions process.
