Does your teen have a wish list or a college list?

A common question I've been asked lately is "When is YOUR spring break?"
I wish!
As an entrepreneur who works with families of teenagers, my spring break varies each year since my clients all have different spring breaks. The earliest started the second week of March and the latest will end in late April.
Across the grades, my client families have a “working” spring break . .?

If you have a college-bound junior and don’t have 300+ hours to spend helping them get ready for college . . .?
This is a critical time for juniors, since college applications are a few short months away. This month, juniors should be visiting top colleges on their list.?
What I’m hearing from too many families of juniors is that they really don’t have a list! Instead, they have a wish list of colleges that they are not confident in attending, let alone applying to.
It takes parents over 300 hours of their time to help their teen in this process.
If you don’t have that kind of time to spend, I invite you to apply now for a complimentary Strategic Decision Call with me or a member of my team. This call will be your family’s time to get on the same page about next steps for you and your junior to get ready for their college applications.
It’s time to stop procrastinating! Senior year will be here before you know it and you don’t have any time to waste.
