Every Student’s Needs Are Different
Just as every student is different, so are their support needs. Planning class selection. Identifying colleges of interest. Connecting with test prep tutors. Finding your writing voice. Targeting summer work activities. Paige is here to guide you.
To ensure that Paige can give each student the attention they deserve, she works with a limited number of students each year. Like colleges, Paige sets clear and high standards for these students. Expectations include: staying engaged, keeping an open mind, coming prepared, and, most importantly, maintaining high standards of integrity in the college process.
