A Peek Behind the Curtain Pt 2: What Happens on Day 1?

Ever wonder what *really* happens the moment you decide to get expert help with the college admissions journey?

Families often ask us, "Okay, we're excited... but what's next? How does this all work?"

It’s a valid question, especially when you're investing in your child's future during such a pivotal time. The process can feel overwhelming, and like the mom in our latest video shared, things have changed *so much* since our parents applied to college.

That’s why we decided to pull back the curtain...again.

In our new video, you'll see what an actual Day 1 onboarding meeting between a new family and our Director of Customer Success, Neera Sameda looks like. You'll see firsthand how we introduce our structured, 3-tiered approach – blending our proprietary curriculum, supportive community, and unlimited coaching – to build what we call "College Confidence."

In our first onboarding call we:

* Walk families step-by-step through our College Confidence Roadmap in Kajabi.
* Explain the parent's role and how they stay informed via our Skool community.
* Introduce the communication tools (like Twist) used for seamless support.
* Set up the initial coaching calls to build momentum right away.

It's about replacing anxiety with a clear plan and ensuring students feel empowered and supported from the start. We believe our curriculum forms the essential foundation (about 80% of the value, according to our families), with dedicated coaching as the crucial support structure built on top.

See how we transition families from uncertainty to confidence on their very first day here:

P.S. - Have a high-performing high schooler w/ a 3.7 GPA or higher? We'll help get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges...and if we don't get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges, you don't pay us a penny.  Seriously.  College admissions isn't rocket science...but it is a science.  And we've cracked the code...year, after year, after year.  You can learn more about our world renowned all-inclusive, start-to-finish college coaching here and to see if your family qualifies for an introductory call.

P.P.S - Our most common question is "When should we start?!"  The answer is, if you truly care about giving your high schooler the best chance of college planning success, you should start NOW. 9th grade is not too early to start! 10th grade is certainly not too early to start! And 11th grade is far, far too late! (supporting data here to show just how much of an advantage you give your child by starting the process early).
