Just another busy Saturday afternoon working with Matt from Park Vista High on his future plans of earning an economics degree from a university in New York. We were also critiquing his recruitment efforts for the new Finance Club that he will have sponsored at his school this Fall. He has already created and sold a profitable business in the past year. I love discussing educational options with motivated applicants. I'd be happy to assist your student on their journey, as well. Give me a call at (954) 448 - 1624. Scott

This was a happy bit of news. For those who don't know, I graduated from the U. of Tennessee with Peyton Manning so I was quite pleased to see this on the national news. Enjoy.....

For Kevin Mager of Lexington, South Carolina going to the University of Tennessee is a dream come true. Kevin’s parents thought he might never have this chance because of the rare brain condition he was born with, which meant he was missing the nerve fibers that connect the two halves of his brain...

In this Ethical Guide, sponsored by Harvard, the third point of being authentic with your student truly stands out to me. Many parents say the name of the college "doesn't matter" to them but then act disappointed when their student chooses a particular college that the parent isn't excited about. Interesting food for thought...

Parents and other primary caregivers shape their children’s moral development in myriad ways. They also often influence every phase of the college preparation, search, and admissions process. Yet the troubling reality is that a great many parents are fundamentally failing to prepare young people t...

COLLEGE ADMISSIONS SCANDAL: It's hard to believe that they were able to get away with this for so long. I can't imagine paying a volleyball coach $400,000 and no one notices a thing?! Mrs. Loughlin has already been released by the Hallmark Channel (which has my mother quite upset). What are your thoughts about all of this? Watch the three minute video for all the details.

The Hollywood star and her famous husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, posted a million dollar bond after being accused of paying half a million dollar in bribes to get their daughters into USC.

Here is an article that a parent shared with me yesterday. I am a professional member of both NACAC and IECA, which are mentioned here. I earned a Master's in Education (M.Ed.) and completed all of the state required courses for School Counseling certification. And I used to be a BRACE Advisor in a guidance office. All of these questions are addressed in my consultations. I'm also friends with Mandee Heller Adler

If school counselors don't have the time to guide you on college choices, there is an alternative.
