How I work 
High School Package
I offer an assessment and advising on the high school years in my High School Package which includes advising on:
  • coursework
  • academic achievement
  • extracurricular development
  • major exploration
  • summer experiences
  • a college list
To discuss these pathways in depth with you during our in person meeting, I first evaluate your profile materials:
  • Transcript(s) from high school
  • All exam scores (if available); forthcoming exam schedule
  • College list when available
  • List of extracurriculars in order of importance to you
  • List of summer activities over past two years and current summer plans
  • Resume or list of any paid/unpaid jobs or internships
  • Writing sample: an academic, creative or reflective paper
  • Athletic profile for colleges (if applicable)
  • Creative resume in music or art (formal and informal training counts)
  • Parent description of student's strengths, character and important life experiences.

The High School Package includes a two hour meeting and regular 30 minute meetings to check in with the student on various topics during the high school years.

College Application Package
Phase Two: In the winter of the junior year, we guide families to undertake the primary tasks of the college application: ​
  • Plan college visits and interviews
  • Create a Common Application account
  • Create a resume
  • Form a summer plan.
Starting in June and continuing through November:
  • Refine the college list
  • Students work individually with one of Felicia's writing advisors to draft and develop the college application essays.
  • Once the applications go live in August, Felicia oversees and helps you to manage the details of the application process, stepping in on a regular basis to see how you are progressing, to review your essays, and to make sure you are taking every opportunity to meet with admissions representatives and improve your chances of being admitted to the colleges on your list.
  • From August through November, you continue working with your writing advisor to complete the writing of 30-45 supplement essays.
