Erin understands that each student is unique. Through a rigorous process of query and exchange, she helps students define their goals, bringing structure and clarity to the college admissions process. Empowering students to take responsibility for their college search sets them on the path to independent learning that is essential to the college experience, and it keeps mom and dad from having to nag. Bringing CCCC aboard will make the college admissions experience both positive and productive for students and parents alike. The results will impact the rest of a student's life. |
