A few things to know
Is it too early — or too late — to start?
Neither. Any year before senior year is valuable foundation time — the earlier the start, the more room to shape the academic and extracurricular profile colleges will eventually see. Students who begin this work early enter senior year with clarity, not anxiety.
What happens after the pre-senior year ends?
Families who complete the pre-senior retainer continue into one of the senior-year retainer tiers (Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond). During the intensive senior year retainer, Dr. B is hands-on in guiding the actual application process — Common App Honors & Activities forms, résumé, interview prep, personal essay, and supplemental essays, as well as mid-year college updates, and LOCI (Letters of Continued Interest).
Can we pay in installments?
Yes — the retainer is billed as a 50% deposit now and the remaining 50% one month later. Both installments are interest-free.
What happens after we reserve?
Dr. B will personally reach out to schedule the kickoff call and begin mapping out the year ahead.
