Westchester County College Planning
A strong college application reflects years of mindful planning and thousands of little decisions that, when better informed and guided, reflect the most authentic version of your son or daughter. Novella Prep’s in-person and online programs balance academic advising (which classes, how to get the best grades, what matters to colleges) with college planning (which tests, requirements for admission, visits, essay, financial aid, and the application). Together, we can help students pave the way for future success with solid groundwork, all while avoiding the stress normally associated with the process.
*Please note that while our services are aimed at helping maximize academic opportunities, we cannot guarantee specific results such as test scores, grades, or admission to a certain college.
Statement of ethics: We believe that the student is the face of the application and therefore stand behind the mindful decision to never contact colleges on behalf of the student. As members of NACAC and IACAC, professional organizations providing standards of best practices, we believe that through their hard work and our guidance, the student can earn and enjoy their own success!
