The Class 101 Story

MyClass101_5SecretsBookCover

Make the whole college process so much easier on you and your family

Class 101 was really beneficial in helping me make college affordable. Shawn is such a caring person and really wants you to end up at your dream school. Her SAT/ACT classes were so helpful in raising my test score. She has so much knowledge and resources available to her that make the whole college process so much easier on you and your family. When applying to scholarships, she helped me find ones I could apply to and worked with me to revise my essays. I highly recommend using Class 101 for you child.

Shawn Coats is extremely passionate about helping students find the right college fit

Class 101 owner Shawn Coats is extremely passionate about helping students find the right college fit, excel in their SAT and ACT scores and boost their confidence in navigating the confusing road to college. Her warm personality, knowledge and comfortable setting helped my son receive over 35K in Scholarship money from his #1 choice in Universities. Thanks Shawn!

S. Baker Parent

Shawn tailors her work to each student

Shawn is FABULOUS! She is extremely knowledgeable with college / vocational school preparation, in addition to scholarship applications, resume and cover letter writing, and career planning. Shawn tailors her work to each student, so that his / her individual, unique needs are met. She is diligent, professional, determined, and very passionate about her work โ€” I highly recommend her services!

C. Procopio Parent

She is so helpful and within only a few appointments

Going to Class 101 has really pushed me to start looking into colleges, career paths, and things I may be interested in. The college prep adviser, Shawn, has given me so much information at every appointment. She is so helpful and within only a few appointments, I have gotten a much better idea of what I want to do with my life. I would definitely suggest this program for any student who wants a stress-free college search.

B. Dixon Student

Shawn really knows her stuff

Shawn really knows her stuff. As a student myself, I wish that I would have had the help of someone like Shawn before I invested in higher education. Not only does she help you to find out what it is that you really want to do, she logistically helps you to get there and keeps you on track. In my opinion, any student looking to go to college should have the help of someone like Shawn.

Dr. Evan Van Driel Parent

I would highly recommend Shawn!!

Shawn Coats is very knowledge in the field of college planning. My son and I have been extremely pleased with her guidance and responsiveness to all of our many questions. I would highly recommend Shawn!!

B. Willis Parent

Good test scores are very important for
college admission & merit based scholarships.
One more point on the ACT could mean thousands
of dollars in extra scholarship funds.
