That was when my family discovered  Class 101. During the first meeting, we met with the college planner and went over some of the colleges I was considering applying to. Together, we considered what I had to offer to these colleges and how I could improve my resume and build up my application to appeal to selective universities and colleges. Since I’ve been working with Class 101, I have been given several resources that not only help me create a list of colleges but to also grow as a student and as a viable student to prospective college admission officers.  These resources include ACT prep courses, a website with details about every college in the country and what they look for in their students. On top of all of that  I have their incredible mentorship, encouragement and personal attention that helps me build up my strengths. With their help, I can understand my own needs when I am looking into my dream college. Things like my ideal location, class size or distance from my home.

I am a junior now, less than 12 months from starting my first application and I feel like I am on the right path. With the help of Class 101, I have a concise list of colleges that I will be applying to, three of which I have already toured. My top three are American University, the University of Richmond and Boston University. They took into consideration my personal strengths and helped build up a strong resume that reflected those interests. I can say with full confidence that I wouldn’t have been able to do half the things I did without their advice. I know Junior year is crunch time when it comes to planning for college.  There’s so much that goes into this single school year, but a part of me is relaxed knowing that I won’t be going in alone. I have the help of experts and Class 101 mentors who will always be there to help me with anything. At the end of the day, their goal is to make me college ready, in every way possible so I can enjoy a stress free senior year.
