A New Framework for College Applications
Green Ivy Educational Consulting has been supporting students for over two decades.
Our expertise is on executive functioning skills, which include organizing, planning, prioritizing, and completing tasks, as well as adaptable thinking. All these skills are critical to helping students manage the entire college application process.
Our approach is student-centered, research-based, and results-focused. Our 4-part framework focuses on supporting students in developing their own blueprint for success, highlighting the importance of executive functioning skills development.
Our goal is to make the college applications process less stressful and life-affirming by helping students build upon their own unique skills and interests while developing their narrative writing abilities to feel confident and prepared for college and beyond.
