My College Helper

Personalized guidance for students and families during college search and planning.

Services Offered

My College Helper offers a variety of specialized services to meet the different needs of students and families:

Student and parents complete surveys and forms and provide an unofficial transcript and class schedule in advance of a 90-minute meeting to discuss strategy, timeline and recommendations for college planning. A detailed follow-up report after the meeting will offer links and resources for continued college search and planning. The fee will be applied to the Comprehensive Plan (below) if the family later chooses that option.

This is an all-inclusive package for high school students and families seeking assistance throughout the entire journey of preparing for college, searching for a right-fit college, applying to colleges, and making a final selection.

Writing essays is sometimes the hardest part of the application for students. The admission essay is an opportunity for the college applicant to stand out…to shine. My College Helper works with students on brainstorming topics, creating an outline, and polishing drafts until they are completed essays.

Filling out the Common Application, the Coalition Application, or specific college apps can be a confusing and time-consuming process. My College Helper will review applications with students to make sure they are accurate and complete.

My College Helper can prepare students through the use of mock interviews and specific interviewing tips.

College students seeking to transfer to another school have special needs and requirements. My College Helper will provide support and information through the transfer experience.

Applying to graduate school is a very different journey for students. My College Helper can provide guidance and support through the graduate school application process.

My College Helper will customize services to best meet your needs.



In addition, My College Helper offers a speaker series on a variety of topics related to college search and planning. Please contact by email at joanne@mycollegehelper.com for topics and pricing information.
