The Timeline:
Dewey works with all students to help plan course selections, testing schedules, school-year activities and summer experiences. In younger years (middle school through 11th grade) the emphasis is on exploring possible majors and careers and being ready to apply to a targeted list of colleges with a strong student profile. The college application process itself begins in June going into senior year. Counseling meetings typically continue through the spring semester of senior year. Regardless of when we start, the goal is to be "ahead of schedule", relaxed, focused, and motivated. 

My philosophy is that knowledge of the college admissions process and timeline empowers students to be proactive and to maximize outcomes. 

Admissions Edge Philosophy


 Applying to college requires the right tools: worksheets, apps, platforms, and websites to name a few.
Applying to college requires strategies and processes.
By combining the right materials and the right strategies and processes,
Dewey helps students move to a more enjoyable and productive admissions process.
