Applying for Undergrad
Private College Counseling
Every applicant’s story is different. By working one-on-one with our students and their families, we are able to customize the experience to help each student pursue their dreams.
By strictly limiting the number of students per counselor, we guarantee that each student gets the attention they need when they need it. Regardless of where a student is in the application process, be it a freshman wanting to make sure she is on the right path or a senior making sure all his t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted, Mosaic College Prep can help stop the stress of the college prep process!
