It's a new year and with it comes exciting new opportunities.
I hope you and your family enjoyed the holidays. I'm normally reluctant to see time move on, but this year I'm hoping 2021 brings us closer to some sense of normalcy.
At Road2College and the Concierge Service we're always looking for ways to better serve families during what can be an overwhelming and anxiety ridden time.
I'm excited to share some new events and tools for Concierge members: - College Admissions Series with Jeff Selingo
We've developed a new 6 part webinar series with New York Times best selling author Jeff Selingo. His recently published book, Who Gets In and Why, has quickly become the default guide for parents new to the college admissions process.
The series will walk through the different stages of college admissions and give an “inside” look as to how it all works.
Concierge members will receive a complimentary pass to attend all six webinars ($29.99 per month for non-Concierge members). We're still confirming all the dates, but the first one will be Sunday, February 21 at 8:30pm ET.
- Access to Our New Search Tool College Insights
This fall we launched College Insights, a new search tool to help families more easily find colleges that can offer students merit scholarships. Concierge members will receive a complimentary account, which normally costs $24.99 for non-Concierge members.
We'll be sending a separate email with access information and I'll be showing everyone how to use College Insights at the Jan. 24th office hours session.
- Coaching by a Bevy of Experts
We'll be expanding the number of experts that coach the monthly sessions. The pandemic has accelerated many changes in the admissions process (test optional, online classes, virtual college fairs, financial aid budget cuts, etc.) and more are on the way like changes to FAFSA.
We believe learning from a range of experts will be beneficial in giving you and your family as much information as possible to be prepared and make smart decisions about admissions and paying for college.
Don't forget - tonight is our first coaching session of 2021! It will be lead by a new admissions expert Bethany.
The Zoom information is below.
Best, Debbie
