College Admissions Consulting

Study Smarter is proud to offer college consulting services.  The college consulting team at Study Smarter has over 35 years of experience in admission test preparation, academic coaching, and advising students and parents. In addition, we have experience evaluating undergraduate applications, working with admissions committees at both UC and Common App schools, and teaching in the college classroom. We strive to leverage this experience and make Study Smarter your one-stop shop for students at any point in preparing for college admissions.

As a company rooted in one-on-one education, we understand that everyone's needs vary.  For families who want a trusted partner for their child preparing for college admissions, we have designed our College Application Strategy (CAS) package to provide a curated college list and strategic application plan based on individual student needs and goals.  As a complement to our CAS program, we offer families hourly college consulting services for college essay coaching, application accountability, and advising on other steps of the process.

At Study Smarter, we believe that intentional, age-appropriate support in the early high school years helps students make confident, informed decisions later in the college application process.

Why Start Early?

Early guidance helps reduce stress, foster motivation, and give students a sense of control over their journey. While we don’t rush the process, we do help students make decisions they won’t regret later.

We offer one-on-one consultations for families at any grade level. Contact Study Smarter to discuss how we can support your student’s growth—whether you're just starting out or preparing for applications.
