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 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

Don’t Wait Until the Last Minute! 📅

For common October 15 or November 1 Early Action deadlines:
🎯 SAT: October 3
🎯 ACT: September 19

While scores can arrive quickly, it’s best to leave yourself some breathing room. Plan ahead so test scores are ready when your application is submitted!

🎓 A must-read for every college-bound family.

As I begin my 20th admissions cycle as an Independent Educational Consultant, I came across a message from a veteran admissions counselor that perfectly captures today's college admissions reality.

From merit scholarships to essays, college fit, and why a rejection isn't a reflection of a student's worth—this is perspective every student and parent needs to hear.

🎓 Your High School Course Choices Matter!

One of the biggest factors colleges consider is the rigor of your high school coursework. To be well-prepared for college and stand out in the admissions process, students should aim for:

✅ 4 years of English
✅ 4 years of Math
✅ 4 years of Science
✅ 4 years of Social Studies
✅ At least 3 years of World Language (4 years is even better!)

Choosing the right courses now can open more doors later. Plan wisely, challenge yourself, and set the foundation for future success! 📚✨

🎓 Parents of college-bound students: If there is ONE thing you do before move-in day, make sure your student completes a FERPA release.

Many families don't realize that once a student enrolls in college, federal law gives them control over their educational records. Without a FERPA release on file, colleges often cannot discuss grades, financial aid, billing issues, enrollment status, or other important matters with parents.

The good news? It usually takes less than five minutes to complete through the student portal.

This isn't about hovering—it's about being able to help when your student needs support, whether it's a financial issue, academic challenge, or unexpected crisis.

Before your student heads to campus, add "FERPA release" to your college checklist.
