To empower students and their parents to make the best possible college choice. We believe education As an Independent Education Consultant, my job is two-fold.

One, to coach the student in finding fantastic fit college options based on a comprehensive list of thoroughly researched choices and two, to assist each student in discovering who they are and then translating their awesome self to a clean, authentic and compelling application. As many of my families have commented, I have a knack for quickly establishing rapport with my students (it helps that I’m not their mom).

College application season always brings equal parts stress and growth — for my students and for me.

In my latest blog, I explore the “blessing and curse” of working with Gen Z: their brilliance, empathy, and awareness… alongside the growing challenge that so few can truly write.

Spoiler: I blame our screen-first world.
But I also believe we can change it.
Start by reading — to your kids, with your kids, for your kids.

Think you can slack off senior year once those college applications are submitted?

Negative.

Your colleges will still see your mid-year and final grades. A senior-year slump can put admissions decisions—and even scholarships—at risk.

Stay the course, seniors. You’re not done yet.

The University of Washington is a research powerhouse and well known for successfully educating the next generation of health care professionals, architects, and engineers. It is not an easy school to be admitted to, especially for out-of-state students, and some majors are extremely competitive.

UW follows a quarter system, which means academics are challenging and fast-paced. The Honors Program is also top-notch for students looking for a stellar, more personalized experience.

When you’re comparing colleges and building your application list, a college consultant can help identify great-fit schools that will lead to a successful outcome!

Paying for college can be one of the biggest concerns families face—and understanding financial aid is an important part of the process.

From the FAFSA and Student Aid Index (SAI) to grants, scholarships, work-study, and student loans, there are a lot of terms and numbers to understand. Knowing how financial aid works can help families make informed decisions and better understand what they may actually be expected to pay.

✍️ Writing your college essay? Start with gratitude.

In a world of generic “I love you” texts and AI-written fluff, what actually stands out? Specificity. 💡

🎓 In his piece, Rick Clark reminds us that the best college essays aren’t about the perfect topic—they’re about authentic voice, vivid details, and personal perspective.

✅ Be real.
✅ Be specific.
✅ Be you.

Because in admissions (just like in life), basic messages get basic responses.

Q: My student may need support services in college. Should we count on what the school provides?

👉 Short answer: Probably not.
Yes, colleges offer counseling, tutoring, health resources, but the reality often falls short. Demand is high, staff is limited, and waitlists are long.

Ideally, while researching colleges and before move-in, ask:
✔️ Are there licensed providers on staff?
✔️ Can they prescribe medication?
✔️ Is there a session limit?
✔️ What’s the average wait time for an appointment?

💡 Pro tip: Line up outside support, virtual or local, before your student leaves home. A plan = peace of mind for everyone.

🎓 College Spotlight: Occidental College (Oxy)

What if you could have the close-knit experience of a small liberal arts college with all of Los Angeles as your extended classroom? That’s Occidental College.

Oxy has about 2,000 undergraduates, small classes, and more than 45 academic programs. Students can explore strong programs in economics, biology, psychology, politics, diplomacy & world affairs, and environmental studies, while taking advantage of research, internships, and experiential learning throughout LA.

🏙️ The vibe: A residential, intellectually engaged campus in Eagle Rock with easy access to the cultural, professional, and entertainment opportunities of Los Angeles.

💰 The cost: Oxy is expensive, but financial aid can make a significant difference. The college says it meets 100% of demonstrated financial need for admitted U.S. students and permanent residents, and merit scholarships are also available.

🎯 Who might love Oxy? Students who want the personal attention and community of a liberal arts college but don’t want to give up the opportunities of a major city.

Small college. Big city. Lots of possibilities.

Adios to the Supplemental Essay! 👋🎓

More colleges are eliminating supplemental essays for the 2026–27 application cycle—including Yale, Georgia Tech, UNC, UVA, Cornell, Tulane and others.

Less stress for students? Absolutely. But could there be another reason? 🤔

Fewer essays → more applicants → lower acceptance rates → better rankings.

I share my thoughts in my latest blog here: https://www.humbacheducationconsulting.com/adios-to-the-supplemental-essay
