High quality college admissions consultant

College planning consultant with CardinalCollegePlanning? As a rule, proactive students will get far more guidance counselor attention than passive ones who wait to be called down. We recommend booking multiple appointments with your counselor as junior year progresses in order to plan your senior year academic schedule and to begin the college conversation. You’ll also want to request letters of recommendation from at least two teachers, preferably in core subjects that align with your college-related interests. Do this in May/June of your junior year to give your recommenders ample time to generate the most thoughtful and detailed letter possible.

It’s easy to get overwhelmed when thinking about college. You need to figure out ways to make yourself a more desirable college applicant, study effectively for those standardized tests looming in the near future and come up with an action plan that will determine where you’ll be applying to, and how you’ll pay for it. If you’ve only just begun your high school career, don’t waste a great opportunity to start taking the steps now to jumpstart college planning.

Stress Less! High school is already a busy time between courses, extra-curricular activities, and more. Then, on top of traditional schooling responsibilities, now there is a shift to a focus on the future as well, which can be incredibly overwhelming. I take the stress off of both the student and the parents by keeping everyone on track of what they should be doing and when, restoring a sense of peace for the whole family!

I also assist students and families with college planning on an hourly basis at $199 an hour. This time can be used for any of the services listed in the Essential or Optimal packages, but not funding guidance. This does not include the personalized portal or ongoing communication. “Tonica is seriously the best person I could think of to help walk students and parents through the whole college planning process. Her passion for the students and truly helping to guide them in the right direction is one of her best qualities. For me, I would only want to work with someone who honestly cares about what they do and the people they are serving and Cardinal College Planning is just that type of business. My younger cousin is in the midst of figuring out her future and Tonica has given me so much advice and wisdom with how to help her navigate what is to come and what steps she should take. If you’re unsure of what to do next you’re in the right place!”- Nichole F.
