Welcome to Upstate College Planning Services!  We’re a full-service consulting firm dedicated to helping students and families negotiate the complex world of college admissions.  We’ll help you get into college anywhere in the United States or abroad; and if you live in Upstate New York, we’ll come to your house to do it.

Upstate College Planning Services provides something that you can’t get from college guides or online research:  insider knowledge.  We know what happens when college executives sit down to make decisions about students.  We’ve been there.  We know what college admissions officers look for, and what will make a difference in your college application.

So, we can help you plan for college whether you’re a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior.  We can help you sift through everything that’s out there, tell you what’s important and what isn’t, show you what it all means for you, and most importantly, help you get admitted to the right college or university for you.

With more than 25 years’ experience in higher education, up to and including the level of Vice President, and experience in Ivy League institutions, selective liberal arts colleges, “public Ivies,” and more, Upstate College Planning Services can help you gain an edge in this competitive and often confusing process.  Give us a call today!
