College Counseling

​

 

Step 1:  EDS can help you find the right college. It starts with your aptitude, not your attitude.  Take an Aptitude Assessment.  

​

Step 2:  Then, EDS will match your aptitude with a career and major. Do not waste years and money on a major that does not suit you.

​

​

Step 3:  With GPA, SAT or ACT scores and your aptitude,  EDS will create a list of colleges of interest. 

​

Step 4:  Worried about financially paying for college?  Get help with FAFSA and Bright Futures applications. Bright Futures alone can provide up to $30,000 over its 4 year term.

 

Step 5: Do you want to attend a Florida university such as FSU, UF, UCF, UNF?  With academic requirements increasing every year, EDS can help you receive college credit through CLEP while in high school.

​

Step 6: Worried about those college applications? Get help with the application process, including writing and editing your essays*, formatting your resume, and proofing your application before submitting. 

​

 

Step 7: Deciding where to attend. EDS will assist the decision on where to attend.  What is the best fit for you- academically, socially, and financially?

​

Step 8: Determine what accommodations are needed for college and whether and how the school provides such.
