This simple, actionable plan will bring self-awareness, organization, and goal-setting to a successful high school career. It includes tips for students to gain valuable perspective and planning in the areas of academics, extracurricular activities/interests, and personal development, leading up to a purpose-driven college admission process.

Because I work with teenagers each and every day, I know how to speak to the core of what they need to hear—no extra fluff, nothing too long or overwhelming that will get tuned out in a nanosecond. These are the tips that will build a strong foundation on which to plan a successful college admission process and launch into the world ready to thrive.

I’m Sara Purviance, founder of Mindset College Collective. As a school-based college counselor and mom, I’m always looking for ways to simplify processes, help students get to know their real selves, and find educational next steps where they will challenge themselves and thrive. I want to help parents give themselves some grace and support their teens without taking away the ownership and self-efficacy students need for a successful launch.

You’re in the right place if you think there is too much noise and fear-mongering in selective college admission these days. If you want the high school years to be less stressful and more joyful, you’ve found the perfect cheerleader. I designed this to help your teen be more proactive instead of reactive as they plan for a fulfilling high school experience and a successful college application process—I can’t wait to hear what you think.
