Class 101 Mid-Cities is a lifesaver! I had no clue how overwhelming the college application process was until I started looking for my own son only to realize I was completely lost. Mark and Melissa gladly took on this burden and helped us every step of the way. From setting up college visits to SAT preparation that helped our son raise his test scores significantly. They worked closely with our family to formulate a plan that was meticulously executed and their communication along the way was impeccable. They removed the stress from the process and made it fun. My piece of advice is to start your student before their senior year!

Because of Class 101… wow, I really don’t think I can put it into words. I’m headed to my dream school. I have a resume that I’m proud of. I got my ACT score up. I’ve experienced the impact that positive affirmation can have on an overscheduled and under slept teenager. I understand the research process to find a school that fits for me. I’m not going to fall into the never-ending pit of despair that is student debt. I’m ready for whatever happens next.
I truly am.

Because of Class 101 I have grown as a student and as a person. Preparing for college can be tricky for high schoolers. Picking a college, deciding a major, and preparing for the ACT are just some of the things that Class 101 has been able to help me with over the last few years. My college planner, Tom, was able to guide me through one of the most important chapters in my life and I am forever grateful. I joined Class 101 as a sophomore with very little idea of what direction I wanted to take my life in. Now, I am just a few months from beginning my first semester of nursing school at the University of Louisville. Without the help of Class 101, I would not have as much confidence in myself and my decisions. Every moment over the last few years has been worth it.
