College, coached by a parent who just did it.

We review your student's record, build the plan, and coach your family through college applications, scholarships, and financial aid — step by step, deadline by deadline.

Done right, your student may attend a university for FREE — and doing it right is exactly what we do.

Free college is real — when it's done right

Without us, you could end up paying over $100K for college — when you could have had it free.

Every year, families pay full price for college simply because the process was done wrong — a deadline missed, a form filed late, scholarships nobody applied for. Done right, the same student may attend a university for free:

That is the whole job — and we're the company that does it right. We just ran this exact playbook for our own family: 21 applications, the FAFSA completed, and a broad scholarship sweep, every step tracked.

How we help

The full run, handled with you — not a pile of advice you have to figure out alone.

Student Review

Grades, courses, activities, awards. We find the strengths, the gaps, and what to fix first.

School Strategy

A college list built around your budget — including the free-tuition programs most families never hear of.

Applications

ApplyTexas and Common App, worked through with you and submitted on time, every school, every piece.

Essays

Your student's own words, reviewed and sharpened — never written for them, always truly theirs.

Scholarship Sweep

Every scholarship your student qualifies for — big, small, and no-essay — applied for and tracked.

Financial Aid

FAFSA and CSS Profile done right, then award letters compared side by side in the spring so you can choose with real numbers.

Built for homeschool families

Homeschool parents carry a job that school families get for free: the counselor's job. There is no counselor's office keeping track of courses, deadlines, and paperwork for your student. We do that job with you.

Your counselor, without the school

  • Course and dual-credit planning — the right classes, in the right order, year by year.
  • Records and transcripts — kept clean and college-ready, the way admissions offices expect to see them.
  • Applications and scholarships — ApplyTexas, Common App, and a full scholarship sweep, applied for and tracked.
  • Financial aid — FAFSA and CSS Profile done right and on time.
  • A deadline calendar — every date in one place, so nothing is missed.

Available to homeschool families across Texas in person, and online anywhere. See what we cover →

How it works

Three simple steps, from where your student stands today to submitted applications.

1

Review

We sit down with the transcript and the whole picture — where your student stands today.

2

Plan

A school list, a scholarship list, and a calendar of deadlines — built for your family.

3

Apply & Track

We work the plan together. Every submission tracked, with proof for everything.

Proof — our own family

We don't coach from theory. All four of our kids have been in magnet programs from elementary through high school. In fall 2026, our oldest filed 21 college applications, completed the FAFSA, and submitted 10 or more scholarships — with 43 college credits already earned in high school.
