Alternatives to our regular program
DISTANCE PROGRAM
Are you further than an hour away from us, but would still like to get your student involved in a New England College Planners program? Or maybe you just summer here on the Cape and will only be available a few times a year for in-house meetings.
We’ve got you covered.
We offer a complete program through Zoom (with the exception of our SAT class). Your student will be supported and held accountable to a customized timeline to keep them on track and feeling confident, just like our in-house students. We also offer financial guidance for our parents with this package. Please see our outline of services for further information or give us a call and we can set up a Zoom presentation to give you a better idea of how we can help bring some joy to the college process for you and your family!
ACCELERATED PROGRAM
For our late starters in high school and college transfers we do have limited space available.
Are you or your student feeling overwhelmed by the college planning process? Or maybe you are a college student who no longer feels that their current school is a good fit. Are you considering the process of applying or transferring and don’t know where to begin?
Or is your student at the end of junior year already without a completed college essay, a nearly assembled and confident college list or ready to start applications? We can help. Or perhaps you are a family who has started the process, but is feeling overwhelmed and stressed now and needs support and direction.
We’ve got you covered too! Let us jump in and bring experienced guidance to this process for the entire family.
We will hit the ground running, making sure that your student has a well-rounded list of colleges to assure that your family will have a positive admissions experience, allowing for not only acceptances, but also available aid. Next we will assist in making sure that the college essay is where it needs to be to ensure the strongest possible application to each college. In-office assistance through the entire application process will help eliminate the unwanted stress that is so common when things are left unmanaged until the last minute. Our program will allow parents to fully understand the financial aid process through informative meetings, but allow them to take a step back with confidence while we take on the pending deadlines for filings.
If you are interested in any of our programs, please contact us to set up a free consultation to see if we might be a good match for each other. Pricing will be discussed at the consultation and there is never any commitment required to come learn a little more about this critical process.
OUR SATISFIED CLIENTS SAY
We cannot say enough about New England College Planners. Raquel and her staff made the entire college process completely stress free and an enjoyable experience for all three of my children. They were very supportive and helpful throughout the entire process starting with SAT Prep and helping each one of them find a college that fit their personalities and goals. We are not sure how we would have done it without them and cannot thank them enough.
We found out about New England College Planners fortuitously, through other parents, and we label the experience short of a miracle. We were overwhelmed with the long process and decision-making ordeal. At a stressful time when most teenagers are still searching for their own self, Raquel and her team are exceptionally prepared to take the reins and flawlessly guide, both the parents and the students, through a personalized process – with a happy ending. We can’t find enough words of gratitude for giving us peace of mind and for helping our two children find colleges where they can excel!
Here is the way I looked at it. I could spend 100 hours trying to learn how to navigate the college process and I would never have the expertise that New England College planners offers.
Thanks to New England College Planners, I was able to simply support my children through the process without telling them what they had to do and when. Raquel and team took care of that. It changed the whole dynamic of the process and our relationship for which I’m so grateful.
My kids felt confident having professionals guiding them and were way ahead of the game every step of the way.
The program paid for itself 5x over with grants and scholarships. I recommend this process highly and without hesitation.
We are proud that most of our clients come to us through referral.
