Your College Workshop
Not just College Coaching, but College Mentoring.….
Applying to college can often feel like a competition where the rules are unclear, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. At The College Atelier, we guide you through the uncertainties and help mitigate the mental and emotional stressors that often create roadblocks to student success.
We can say from extensive experience in the college admissions space that, schools over and over again respond - beyond the catalog of measurables - to candidates whose profiles, application materials, and personal visions resonate profoundly and authentically with who they are. You see, the secret is not really about building a resume for college in isolation, as much as it is about tapping into the passions that animate you here and now. Whether it is a clear-cut career path, an insatiable drive for intellectual growth, a mission to help the world at large, or a discipline that one truly loves, the most successful students see the college process for what it really is: an indispensable means to achieving one’s lifelong goals or, which is just as powerful, the means to discovering oneself and those related goals.
As college consultants we have a wealth of experience helping a wide range of students align their own personal context with the admittedly intricate and demanding rigors of the college process. We are educators first and foremost whose work with students is fundamentally informed by a mentoring approach. Consequently, our area of specialty is offering nuanced, personalized service dependent upon your child's unique needs, personality, and goals.
We pride ourselves on providing a reliable support system to families as they navigate their application journeys, ensuring they feel empowered and confident about achieving whatever college goals they have in mind.
Whether you are just beginning the path, or are looking for guidance in your senior year, it's never too late to find holistic support from a pair of industry professionals who have both the pedagogical expertise and admissions experience to guide you along the way to your future….
