Best Colleges in Peoria, AZ

From the Business:Teens whose schoolwork has been interrupted or delayed face unique challenges in getting into college. Their transcripts may appear “non-standard”, with gaps, sudden switches in and out of schools, and poor grades that can make admissions officers nervous. Many troubled teens are exceptional students. Some are “twice-gifted”, the term for students with high intelligence and learning or emotional disabilities that interfere with their ability to demonstrate that knowledge. Once those disabilities are addressed, they are capable of outstanding college work. Our college consultant thrives on the challenge of selecting the right college “fit” for your student, and helping him or her master the admissions process. Like traditional consultants, we look at matching your student’s grades and test scores with the admitted “pool” of a particular college. We help parents and students prepare for college visits, including interviews with college disability coordinators. These college disability specialists maintain a support structure for students. Such offices vary from a token administrator to programs with huge budgets and staffs. It is not enough to begin college - graduation is the goal, and choosing a college with a supportive disability program is key.Read more
