Our Students Say It Best

Class 101 helped me stay on track with college applications, making the feat of senior year a lot easier. The support and knowledge I gained from Class 101 was very valuable, and Charity is the best!!

Regan

University of Colorado Boulder

Class 101 was extremely worthwhile. It taught me more about having goals, managing expectations, and creating backup plans. It required diligence and focus, but the more I dedicated to improving (like on the SAT), the more I made progress. I recommend starting the process early so that you can get guidance throughout the entire high school experience.

This is the second time my family has worked with Class 101. With my college planner’s help, I was able to improve my grades and write an amazing essay while abroad in Frankfurt, Germany. This made the distance between the two of us negligible, even before social distancing measures were put in place! Without Class 101, I would have been lost within the endless information required for applying to college. Thank you for making this difficult transition year so much more bearable!
