THE PROBLEM SHOWS UP LIKE THIS...

It's the summer before senior year, and everyone keeps saying "you should really get started."

But here's the problem: nobody - not the school, not the internet, not the parent group chat - can seem to tell your student where 'start' actually is, or what comes after it.

1

seventeen open tabs

You've googled. Reddit says one thing, the college info night said another, and TikTok contradicts both. Somehow you know less than when you started.

2

one busy counselor

Your school counselor is wonderful - and responsible for a few hundred students. Yours will get about twenty minutes of guidance for a decision this big.

3

"we'll talk later"

Your student isn't lazy or careless. They're just overwhelmed - and avoidance is exactly what overwhelm looks like at seventeen years old.

The issue is... the admissions process quietly rewards students who work strategically - and punishes the ones who wing it… and nobody actually teaches the strategy.

SMALL GROUP BY DESIGN • ENROLLMENT IS LIMITED •

The good news?

Here's what CHANGES everything:

There IS a proven order of operations for all of this - and it's something your student can absolutely be taught.

The summer before senior year is the perfect window to run it - while there's still room to think, before the deadlines take over.

You don't have to become the admissions expert yourself, and neither does your student. That's Carole's job - it's what she does.

There's a simple solution that works for every kind of student - the planner, the procrastinator, and everyone in between. And it doesn't matter their dream school, their GPA, or how far behind they feel.

1

FIRST...

Your student learns the strategy in six live small-group sessions on Zoom - one module per week, taught personally by Carole.

2

SECOND...

Each week's homework is the real thing: the college list, the essay draft, the Common App. The homework IS the application.

3

THIRD...

Carole personally reviews what matters most: the personal statement, two supplemental essays, and your student's full Common App in a private 1:1 session.

the short version?

When your student learns the strategy, does the real work week by week, and gets Carole's personal feedback on the pieces that matter most, the whole process starts to look a lot like magic.

WHAT’S INSIDE THE COURSE

Here's a sneak peek at what you'll discover inside Admission Strategy Academy:

MODULE 1

The Admissions Process

The entire maze, mapped - what colleges actually evaluate and the exact order to tackle it all. Side effect: the first full breath you've taken in months.

MODULE 2

College Essay Strategy

Yes, the essay comes second - on purpose. Topic found and draft underway in summer, October essay meltdown officially cancelled.

MODULE 3

Best Fit College & Major Options

A balanced, strategic college list built on real fit, plus clarity on majors and career directions worth exploring. Not just wherever the group chat is applying.

MODULE 4

The Common Application

Section by section, done right the first time - including the sneaky mistakes that trip up even strong applicants.

MODULE 5

Activities, Honors & Your Story

Four years of activities shaped into one story an admissions reader will remember. ("Participated in things" is not a story.)

MODULE 6

Final Review & Submission

Every piece checked, every deadline mapped - and the submit button clicked with confidence instead of panic.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does it start, and what's the time commitment?

The Founders Cohort begins in August 2026, meeting live on Zoom once a week for six weeks. Plan on the one-hour session plus assignments each week - but remember, the homework IS the application, so this isn't extra work on top of applying. Every session is recorded, so a missed week is never a lost week.

Is this group coaching or private coaching?

Both, honestly. The six modules are taught live in a small group — students love hearing each other's questions. But every review is private: Carole personally reads your student's personal statement and supplemental essays, and meets them 1:1 to go through their full Common App.

We're not in Florida — is this still for us?

Absolutely. The strategy — essays, activities, list-building, the Common App — applies to admissions everywhere. Carole's deep expertise with Florida's ultra-competitive schools (UF, FSU, and friends) is a bonus for Florida families, not a limit for everyone else.

P.S. In case you're someone who scrolls straight to the bottom first (hi, same) — here's the deal:

There are less than 52 Saturdays...

that you will spend with your senior before they leave for college.

This is a year of making memories with your child that you will cherish forever.

You can avoid the stress, last minute scrambling, and missed deadlines.

Don't go it alone - let's make this last year with your child a happy one for both of you!
