COLLEGE ADMISSIONS CENTER College Prospects of America

OUR MISSION  Our mission is to present verified information on your behalf to college and university decision makers with a goal of enhancing your admissions and financial aid opportunities.  We help college applicants become broadly based admissions and scholarship prospects that colleges actively seek out and recruit.

COLLEGE ADMISSIONS REALITY  At least 80 percent of our 4-year colleges and universities are actively seeking students. The others are overwhelmed with applicants – you know who many of them are – and they can be very selective about who they admit and how much financial aid they offer. But 8 out of 10 need students! Still, finding a match with the right school is no easy task. Searching online is a place to start but the amount of information to sift through is enormous!  Our role is expanded exposure with professional guidance and promotion in order to give the student the best choices possible.

SCHOLAR STANDARDS To offer schools the very best candidates the following standards apply: Class Rank: Top 10 percent GPA: 3.0 or above ACT: At least 26 SAT: 1100 minimum on Math and Creative Reasoning, 1200 or above preferred **If the student has not taken the SAT or ACT yet but has taken the PSAT or PACT (the pre-test), we can accept them into the program if their scores would translate to the range we need for the actual SAT or ACT.
