in Admission.
This Protects
Completion.

The average family spends $200,000 or more on a college education. The students most likely to leave before finishing are not the least prepared academically. They are the ones no one prepared emotionally. College Edge changes that.

What You Are Carrying

The Worry That
Does Not Have a Name Yet.

You have done everything right. The tutors, the test prep, the campus visits. Your student is admitted. You are proud. And somewhere underneath the pride is a question: what if they do not make it?

That fear is not irrational. More than four in ten first-generation students seriously consider leaving college during their first year. The primary reasons are not academic. They are stress, financial pressure, loneliness, and the feeling of not belonging.

College Edge gives your student the clinical preparation for those moments before they arrive. And the Launch package keeps you as an informed partner in that preparation.

If Your Student Is First-GenerationIf neither of your parents graduated from college, you may not have a personal map for what your student is entering. The Launch package includes a 30-minute parent debrief where Dr. Thurman walks you through your student's EI profile and gives you specific, practical guidance for supporting the transition.
If Your Student Is Continuing-GenerationElite university environments are high-pressure regardless of family background. The EI Assessment is not a screening test for at-risk students. It is a precision instrument for developing high-performing students.
The Investment Frame

What $2,800 Actually Protects.

SAT Tutoring

$3,000-$8,000

Improves admission odds. Does not address why students leave after they arrive.

College Essay Coach

$350-$500/hr

Strengthens the application. Does not prepare the student for the Year 1 emotional reality.

College Edge Launch

$2,800

Clinical EI assessment, coaching, and the emotional architecture that determines whether the first two years work.

A single semester of tuition at a private university exceeds $25,000. The Launch package costs less than a week of that tuition.
