About The Program
The program is meant for students in Grades 9, 10, and 11 (3rd to 5th form). For US-based students, it is meant for students in their freshman and sophomore year of high school. It's all about developing the profile to get you IN, and get you SCHOLARSHIPS when it's your time to apply.
We do this in three fundamental ways
Hook DevelopmentIn the world of college admissions, a "hook" is a term used to describe a characteristic, trait, or talent that gives students an edge in the admissions process. Almost all students who are accepted to top schools have a hook. However, most students have to consciously and actively develop this hook. We help students to identify, develop, and hone their hook. We push them to pursue and explore their passions creatively, not only to help them to stand out in the admissions process but also to help them to live fulfilling and passionate lives in college and beyond.

Strategic PlanningThis involves strategizing about various aspects of the process in relation to the student's personal and academic profile. This will include extra curricular and summer strategy, testing strategy, subject selection, summer program application assistance, decoding and researching best-fit-colleges, delving into the nuances of various admissions policies, and approaching the process through a strategic lens. Strategic Planning will look different based on a student's profile, personality, and goals.

Application InsightOur College Roadmap students and parents will be able to attend College Prep workshops that focus on themes like "Applying By Location: Admissions Processes By Country", "Financial Aid Planning", "College Essay Writing", and more! These workshops will allow them to gain valuable insight into the process from an early stage. In addition, students will have one-on-one check ins with us every other month to ensure that they are staying on track with their academic, co-curricular, and personal goals.

FAQs
Can I sign up if I am not in the grade levels listed?
No. This program is intended only for students in Grades 9, 10, and 11 (3rd to 5th form). For US-based students, it is for students in their Freshman and Sophomore year of high school. For students in Grade 11/5th form/Sophomore Year, you must sign up before October of that year. Younger students can sign up at any point during the school year.
If you are in Grade 12 (Lower 6th form), or Junior year for US-based students, then you should sign up for our College Prep Program instead.

will i automatically be enrolled in the college prep program, once the college roadmap program ends?
You will not be automatically enrolled, since College Prep is a separate fee. After you graduate from our College Roadmap program, you can choose to enroll in College Prep starting in the summer before Grade 12/Lower 6th Form/ Junior Year. The College Prep program begins in September. You can view these prices here. Our College Roadmap students will benefit from a 10% discount on College Prep.
If i pay for one year, can i pay the difference for year 2 or 3 at a later date?
Yes, but you won't benefit from the same fees. When students pay for 2 or 3 years upfront, they benefit from heavily reduced annual fees. For one year, the annual fee is USD $525. For two years, the annual fee is USD $425 and for three years, the annual fee is USD $325. Our expectation is that students will sign up for the program that covers the number of years that they have left before starting college prep. This means that Grade 9 students will sign up for three years, Grade 10 students for two years, and Grade 11 students for one year.
However, if a student chooses to sign up for one year and decides to continue for another, the same annual rate of USD $525 will be applied with a discount of 10% for the additional year. Hence, it is in your best interest to sign up for multiple years upfront if you are in Grades 9 or 10.

Yes. A 25% deposit is required. Monthly deposits of a minimum of 10% of the remaining package cost are required. Our payment plans are flexible.
CAN I SIGN UP IF I AM NOT LOCATED IN JAMAICA?
Absolutely! All of our programs are online, and we work with many. students who we have never met in-person. No matter where you are from, you will benefit from our full-range of services.

For summer programs, we will absolutely help our students to apply. But not for Boarding Schools. Applying to Boarding School is an entirely separate process, and is not covered under the College Roadmap program.
