I am Andrea, a college advisor with many years of experience working with high school students. I am a member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association and a member of the University of Miami College Advisory Board. I am part of a large public school guidance team serving students with varying needs and goals. I have tutored many private and public school students on how to identify and get accepted at the college that is the perfect fit for their needs. I have extensive expertise in securing college funding for students and their families. I provide individualized support to the specific situation and student’s goals. Not every student is destined for an Ivy League university. I review each student’s situation individually to tailor a plan that will help them achieve their college goal, optimally beginning at the start of high school. Empowering students, fostering their personal and academic growth, and attaining the confidence they need to succeed.
My personalized approach focuses on understanding each student's aspirations, strengths, and challenges. I have a proven track record of helping students build strong college resumes; selecting extracurricular activities, leadership roles and volunteer opportunities that will be positively received by prospective colleges. I assist students in securing relevant internships, jobs, and activities that will best enrich their applications. I look at class selection, deciding on the ideal recommenders and crafting compelling essay/personal statement that will best highlight the student’s character, values, and goals to the college admission team, optimizing the student’s chances of acceptance.
