Working with a College Counselor

At Crosby College Coaching, we realize that the college admissions process has gotten more and more complicated. You’ll benefit from our carefully developed project planning program which takes into consideration everything from A-Z (and then some!) so that you and your student can enjoy the here and now and make all those wonderful high school memories. The top reasons our clients choose us as a college counselor: • Less stress: Guiding you through every step, question, and nuance of the college preparation process, we take the burden off your student and prepare and equip you for the best possible outcome. • Experience: We’ve worked with 1000’s of college students and helped them get into best-fit colleges they were excited to attend • Planning, timelines, and organization: Helping you stay on track and on time with deadlines and planning. There are a lot of moving parts and pieces, and we’ll help you manage them all! • Accountability: Whether your student is Type A or Type “I’ll do that later”, we’ve got you covered! We help hold your teen accountable as they take action towards pursuing their future. • Enhanced learning: The learning doesn’t need to wait until they sign up for BIO 102 and pick their electives! Working with a college counselor helps your student learn invaluable adulting skills such as executive functioning, goal setting, time management, decision-making, managing expectations, and turning disappointments into successful pivots and unparalleled confidence! Working with a College Counselor helps Increase Quality Connection at Home During these transitional years, change is abundant and your relationship with your student is of utmost importance. A college counselor can create ease in your parent-student relationship during the admissions process. Outsourcing guidance relieves you of the burden of college planning and allows you to enjoy time together that doesn’t always revolve around the college conversation. You’ll feel more connected and present and get a unique experience of seeing your teen’s strengths come to life even more!

400:1 Is the average ratio of counselors to students in public high schools. In many cases, your student isn’t able to get the personalized attention, time, and hands-on support they need to make their college decision in the best way possible. At Crosby College Coaching, our ratio is much lower, allowing us to fully focus on you and your student! Our goal is to complement the services of your school, and offer an unprecedented level of project management, support, and tailored guidance.

With our expert guidance, we free up parents (who are already working hard enough!) to focus on spending quality time with their student. As a parent, you’ll help inform us of your student’s strengths, weaknesses, and budgetary considerations. Then, you can be involved as much or as little as makes sense for you and your student (without controlling their experience, of course!).

Yes! Our Student Athlete Guidance service provides Juniors and Seniors tailored guidance during the recruitment process. Whether they’re an heavily recruited MVP or simply looking to keep playing their favorite sport during their college years, we’ll help them identify specific and appropriate athletic opportunities to align with their academic goals.

Teenagers today live in a fast-paced world full of opportunities to compare (and despair). We don't intend to feed into that, and instead focus on YOUR student's best fit options: personally, socially, academically, and financially. We aim to see your student on a campus where they can take advantage of all the possibilities. We’ve guided students to Ivy League options, liberal arts schools, flagship state schools, as well as WUE scholarships and other unique paths. We commit to always bringing an open-minded, non-judgemental approach to each and every individual we work with! Personal fit is our top priority at Crosby College Coaching.

We’ve visited numerous campuses across the US in order to gain firsthand knowledge of their unique programs, campus culture, and facilities. This has allowed us to provide even more personalized guidance in matching your student to their best-fit schools.
