The consulting process focuses on the student. We seek placement where the student will find the best resources for personal and academic success, and where the family will be confident in its choice*. The process includes:
- INTERVIEWS WITH THE PARENT (and the student if appropriate) to identify needs and goals, including academic, social, geographic and financial considerations.
- EVALUATION of transcripts, reports and recommendations, current testing, activities, and interests.
- REFERRALS, if necessary, for further testing, tutoring, and/or admissions test coaching.
- DEVELOPMENT OF A LIST of appropriate schools or programs.
- GUIDANCE AND INSTRUCTION in preparing applications, writing admissions essays, visiting schools, and interviewing.
- HELP WITH ARRANGEMENTS for admissions testing, including individual administration of the
Secondary School Admissions Test
(SSAT), and for visiting schools.
- ONGOING CONTACT with admissions offices throughout the process.
- CONSULTATION with the family on the final choice of school or program.
- FOLLOW-UP for as much as a full year after placement to monitor the "fit" for the family and the student.
*Please note that Dobson Educational Services cannot guarantee either admission or success in a school or program.
