Class 101 is on a mission to provide students and their families with the tools and resources they need to find their futures and become the best versions of themselves. They take a one-on-one approach to helping students find and apply to colleges that fit their needs and budgets. By advising students on how to improve test scores, increase scholarship opportunities, and become competitive applicants, they take the confusion and intimidation out of the college application process. For high school students, it can be hard to know where to start when it comes to applying to colleges. Class 101 takes the guesswork out of the process and provides students with an easy-to-follow step-by-step process. With the help of Class 101, students can also learn how to reduce the overall cost of higher education.
Class 101 offers unique programs to the students. Students work individually with a college planner and meet once a month for hour-long sessions throughout the year. The sessions prepare the student to take ACT and SAT tests, improve GPA, work on building a large list of schools that are a good fit, prepare a high-performance resume for colleges, write a powerful essay, visit schools, complete applications ahead of schedule and navigate the scholarship and financial aid processes. Students that go through the Class 101 program have some dramatic results: the average American high school student applies to two or three schools and receives about $20,000 in scholarships and aid. Class 101 students apply to an average of 10 schools and receive more than $200,000 in scholarships and aid. Our students also tend to stay in school. The dropout rate for incoming college freshmen is high — as many as one in three first-year students never make it to their sophomore year. The dropout rate for Class 101 students is less than 1% — far below the national average. Class 101 helps students every step of the way, from considering their options to seeing them off to their first day at their new school. They provide more than just a roadmap of stops - they help connect all of the dots so that the process is as seamless and stress-free as possible. Class 101’s services include the following:
