College Bound Admissions Academy College Admissions & Financial Aid Consultant and College Coach & Mentor for students aged 14-24.

Bridget founded College Bound Admissions Academy in 2002 to provide comprehensive college planning for both admissions and financial aid. She applies the skills she has acquired over the years as an educational consultantโ€”independent thinking, collaboration through listening, and time managementโ€”to help her students and their families successfully maneuver through the maze of the college planning process. Bridget understands how each child differs in terms of interests, strengths, and goals. She works directly with her clients in both admissions and financial aid planning, guiding them to make informed decisions about their childโ€™s college education.

The first semester of college is one of the strongest predictors of long-term college success. The transition to college is about far more than moving into a dorm roomโ€”it's about learning how to thrive academically, socially, and personally from day one.

For many students, the first semester is the biggest adjustment they've ever experienced.
