Give Your Teen the Gift of Confidence: A Clear Path to College

Schedule a complimentary 1:1 Family Zoom with one of our college planning experts

By Pathfinders College & Career Advisors Team November 19, 2025

As parents, we spend years building our child’s confidence, celebrating the first ice cream cone they ordered on their own, cheering through wobbly bike rides, guiding them through every new milestone. However, when it comes to college, many families feel like they suddenly have to step back and let their teen somehow figure it all out alone or with minimal guidance. 

When it comes to choosing a college and navigating the admissions process, this isn’t the moment to hope they’ll just “figure it out.” They still need you, maybe now more than ever, as the decisions get bigger and the stakes get higher.

This next step is big, emotional, and incredibly important, so the right guidance can make all the difference.

At Pathfinders College & Career Advisors, we specialize in helping students find clarity, feel confident, and excited about their future. We work with families one-on-one to:

  • Discover the student’s ideal majors or career paths through our proven career readiness program
  • Identify schools that are truly the right fit academically, socially, and financially
  • Build a strong college application strategy with 24 one-on-one college expert guided Zooms
  • Improve competitiveness with test prep, essays, and tailored guidance
  • Create a plan that maximizes scholarship opportunities and the ROI of their college education
