Our Mission for You

We offer a developmental approach to college admissions that focuses on self-awareness, agency, and responsibility by empowering students to identify individual priorities for their college experience, develop skills to address each component of the admissions process, and evaluate acceptance offers to determine the best college fit for their circumstances. 

College Mode’s student-centered counseling services include one-on-one guidance, group workshops, and webinars for students. Our services are tailored to support students and their families through learning the college admissions process, assessing the strengths and weaknesses of multiple college choices, and prioritizing the students’ needs and acceptance offers using a data-based decision-making process. 

Founding partners Sharon Davis and Lynn Lillian are fully invested in each students’ success, and these carefully developed components are key to our mission.

 
 
“The college process can be all-consuming and pretty stressful. For our family, we wanted to try to make it as low-key as possible, and avoid it becoming all-consuming. To be honest, we didn’t really know what we needed before we worked with College Mode. ”
