One counselor, the whole way through
College Coordinates is a solo practice run by Jake Beckman. You work directly with me on everything, with no hand-offs, no junior staff, and no templates. I've guided students through hundreds of applications at every kind of school, and I've learned the process works best when students are driving it, not just along for the ride.
The approach is honest, strategic, and low-drama. Most of the time things work out, and a lot of my job is helping you see why.
Genuinely personalized. Your college list doesn't come from a spreadsheet. It comes from knowing you.
No upselling. Solo practice means no one pushing services you don't need.
Long-term thinking. I'll work with you as early as 9th grade, because fit matters more than a name on a sweatshirt.
Direct access. You get my number and straight answers. That's the whole model.
