Prepare Now for a Successful Fall Application Season


June 16, 2024

Hello Reader,

Summer officially starts in a few days but it already feels like it right now. Now is the time to make preparations for a successful fall application season.

It is exactly 121 days to the first application deadline, which is October 15. Most applications for admission into U.S. colleges/universities for Fall 2025 will open August 1. Note that both University of Georgia and University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill for example, have the earliest early action deadlines of October 15 if they are on your list.

If you are a prospective undergraduate student or have a prospective undergraduate student in your life, there are things you can do now to prepare such as:

  • Figure out the tangible and intangible factors that will affect your success in the college application process and how to set up the right foundation for success;
  • Build your college list;
  • Get your finance ducks in a row;
  • Thinking about what to write for the college essay;
  • Organize your academic and extracurricular record;
  • Request letters of recommendations;

And so on....and so on.

These are all things we cover in CFF College Fully Fundedβ„’, our college admission coaching program. We work with our students to help them find, apply, and gain admission to U.S. colleges/universities with full funding in order to avoid debt. Registration for our Fall 2024 session is underway and the early bird registration deadline is July 12. We kick off August 26.

Here's is what participants in the program get:

πŸŽ“ 10 weeks of recorded classes covering each of the 10 steps in our framework for admission with full funding.

🌟 10 weeks of live weekly group coaching sessions to get their questions answered after reviewing the recorded classes.

πŸ“ 10 weeks of weekly assignments covering every aspect of the college application process. By completing these assignments, students will have their application materials ready for the upcoming season. They'll also receive valuable feedback on all their work.

πŸ”‘ 10 weeks of weekly office hours for personalized assistance.

πŸ’ͺ Access to a supportive membership community that continues for a total of 10 months, providing online support as students progress through the admissions process.

Our students have successfully gained admission with full funding to schools like Harvard, Cornell, Lehigh University, University of Maryland College Park, Union College, University of Miami, etc.
