Your partner for college planning, admissions, test preparation, and scholarships.
At Class 101 – Dayton, we help students and families navigate the college planning process. Located in Springboro, we serve students from throughout the Miami Valley. Our mission is to empower students, serve families, and inspire greatness. We know that applying to college can be overwhelming, which is why we strive to make this process enjoyable for families. We navigate the complex, multi-year process by working one-on-one with students as early as their freshman year of high school. But it’s not just about getting into college. At the core of everything we do is a passion for helping young people find their future.
Good test scores and good grades put students in a position to receive more merit-based scholarships. Our ACT/SAT test prep classes are limited to our college planning students who also work on test prep in one to one college planning meetings. Our next ACT Class will be a tips class for juniors in February. Reach out to schedule a college planning consultation to learn more about Class 101 students prepare for college admission tests.

We keep reflecting back to our first meeting with Class 101 and how you immediately connected with Sam. All the meetings, essay writing, tours, and mostly your/Class 101 support made all the difference in making his dream come true! Thank you!

Class 101 has been beyond helpful in making the college application and transition process organized and as stress-free as possible! They have introduced me to so many scholarship opportunities of which I have taken full advantage, and have been a guide and resource even beyond college acceptances!

The great people at Class 101 have given me the opportunity to have one-to-one college planning and ACT prep, helping me prepare for my future. The work they do to help me prepare for what’s truly ahead of me is incredible and is truly personalized to me and to what I am interested in, which makes the whole college planning experience fun and interesting.

Starting at Class 101 was the best decision I have ever made. I started as a senior and was very lost on my college search. Class 101 helped me get into every college I applied to and kept me on the right track the entire time.

With the help of Class 101, I was able to raise my ACT score six points. I followed their advice and visited 10 colleges and found the perfect college for me! They spent many hours helping with essays and scholarships, and I’m so grateful! Thank you Class 101 for being such a huge supporter!

Joining Class 101 was the best decision my parents and I made. Class 101 worked with me to build my resume, apply to college, and make it affordable. Whether it was ACT prep, summer essay sessions, or college and scholarship applications, my Class 101 college planners have always been willing to help me accomplish my goals.

Class of 2021
From my very first meeting with my college planners, they believed in me as I looked at schools all over the country. They became like another family to me. Class 101 was always a place I could go to do my work–applications, essays, research. I honestly don’t think I could have gotten it all done without them!
Mauricio
Class of 2020
Before Class 101, I went into ACT prep not knowing what to do and started with a score of 27. My college planner, Karen, helped me learn how to take the test. I had a goal of 30, but achieved a 32, which helped me receive several scholarships
Zoe
Class of 2020
I was accepted into the DAAP program majoring in fashion design at the University of Cincinnati. I started working with Karen and Tony in my junior year and could not have asked for two better people to help me with my college choices, ACT help, scholarships, and more! Being a first generation college student in my family, I was lost on where to even start, but Class 101 helped me achieve the dreams I wanted to accomplish.
