College Can Be Complicated

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Maybe you or your student is doing well academically but struggling to navigate everything that comes with college. You aren't sure who to ask for help, what resources are available, how to handle a difficult conversation with a professor, or whether you’re making the most of the opportunities around you.

Or maybe something has gone wrong. An academic integrity allegation. A conduct issue. A grade dispute. A financial aid problem. Suddenly, your family is trying to understand unfamiliar policies, deadlines, and processes while also deciding what to do next.

That’s where Carla comes in.

“I want help navigating college and staying on track.”

College Navigation Support

This is ongoing support for students who would benefit from having a knowledgeable guide outside the university and family.

This may be a good fit if your student:

  • Is having difficulty adjusting to the independence and expectations of college

  • Doesn't always know where to go or who to ask when they need help

  • Could benefit from support with planning, organization, and follow-through

  • Needs encouragement to advocate for themselves rather than relying on a parent

  • Isn't taking full advantage of advising, faculty relationships, internships, leadership opportunities, or other campus resources

  • Is approaching an important decision and would benefit from an experienced, objective sounding board

  • Would benefit from having someone in their corner who understands how colleges work

“Something has happened, and we need help figuring out what to do.”

Student Advocacy Support

When a student receives an academic integrity notice, faces a conduct hearing, needs to appeal a financial aid decision, or encounters a serious academic or administrative issue, families often don't know where to begin. University policies can be complicated, the language unfamiliar, and deadlines important.

Carla helps students and families understand the process, identify their options, prepare thoughtfully, and determine their next steps.

This may be a good fit if:

  • Your student has received a formal notice and you aren't sure what it means

  • You need help understanding a university policy or process

  • Your student needs to prepare for a meeting, hearing, appeal, or difficult conversation

  • You're trying to determine whether an appeal or grievance is appropriate

  • You want an experienced outside perspective before deciding what to do

  • You want to support your student without taking over the process
