Services

Onward offers an array of services covering all aspects of the college admissions process. Meetings can take place in person or virtually in the Washington DC area and remotely with students across the U.S. and abroad. I limit the number of families I work with each year to ensure every student receives my full attention. There are four ways we can work together:

​

​

Jumpstart

 

This starter pack consists of four 60-minute meetings - two in 9th grade and two in 10th - that can go a long way toward setting students up for success. These early conversations will help students understand what colleges are looking for, provide a general timeline for the admissions process, and offer guidance on course selection, activities, and summer plans. It's a great way to get ahead!
