New This Summer: Silver Application Package

June 24, 2014
by All-in-One Academics
0 Comment

We filled all of our Platinum College Application Crash Courses this year in record time – which was fantastic! But we were still getting a lot of inquiries from students and parents once the classes were full. We came up with a whole new program to offer this summer: the Silver Summer Application Package! The goal of these courses is to set aside a number of hours in the summer to really focus and work on the college applications. Here’s what’s included:

12 hours of one-on-one application consulting

8 hours of resume and essay editing

Students will finish with one polished, targeted college essay plus three creative, original 500-word essays

The 12 hours are designed to be run for 3 hours per day over 4 consecutive days. Although some modifications may be made, these prolonged sessions are critical to fostering communication and trust between the admissions consultant and the student. For more information, or to sign up, please click here. 

The cost for this program is $1,875.

This is a great way to get a head start on senior year!

 

This Saturday: Free Test Prep Information Session

Everyone looks forward to relaxing in the summer – but there are some things that shouldn’t be left to flutter around in the summer breezes. What are we talking about? Test prep! Join us on Saturday, May 31st and hear from our senior test prep instructor, Errolynn Zetar, on why summer is a great time for test prep. She’ll share some tips, answer questions, and tell you about different summer options that are available.

 Errolynn Zetar / All-in-One Academics

Summertime Test Prep Info Session
 Saturday, May 31st from 11:00am – 12:00pm
at
All-in-One Academics Offices
River Oaks Shopping Center, Second Floor
1973 W. Gray Suite #17 Houston, TX 77019

Here are two quick tips from Errolynn to give you a taste of what she will be talking about:

 

  • “Summer test prep allows the student to work on vocabulary without having to worry about it mixing in with their school work – it is easier to learn more words.”
  • “Free time in the summer allows students to take more practice tests. Taking full-length practice tests is imperative. Students need to practice timing and increase their stamina and summer leaves more time to do that.”

 

Space is limited so please let us know if you’ll be attending. To RSVP, send an email to may@allinoneacademics.com or call 713.405.1193. We hope to see you there!

Texas College Guide: The University of Texas at Austin – Now Available!

May 23, 2014

We are really excited about this new book – Texas College Guide: The University of Texas at Austin. Jessica decided last summer to sit down and write a book about everything she has learned about applying to UT from her years of experience. She was also able to collect information directly from the University and its various schools to pull together all of the information Texans need to understand the system and plan for success. Here is more about why she wrote the book:

“After years of working with students and achieving a very high success rate of helping students gain admission to UT Austin, I have seen that a proven track record of involvement and focus in a given area can provide students with a real edge in admission to UT, and I’ve really had it with deception and subterfuge. UT applicants – you or your kids or your grandkids – are real people with meaningful histories and experiences that merit an honest and comprehensive display. However, you also deserve to understand what makes an applicant competitive for a given major, so that you don’t waste your major selection on choices that are absurd long shots. Next, you need to understand how the majors are different, what types of careers they cultivate, and what sorts of job and income prospects you’ll have after graduation. Finally, you need to know the other options that exist for paving a pathway to the University of Texas at Austin, because a rejection letter as an incoming freshman is not the end of the world, nor is it the end of the story. And, that’s why I’ve written this book, to give you the information you need and to prevent you from falling victim to shysters in this dodgy day and age of admissions chicanery. Additionally, I’ve fact-checked every aspect of my work with the University of Texas, combing their website for content and keeping in close contact with admissions and various UT departments. This book is a one-stop reference for UT major selection and admissions.” 

We hope that students (and their parents) enjoy this book and feel informed about the admission process at UT. And if you are a prospective Aggie: don’t worry, this book is the first in what will be a series!

On Saturday, May 3rd, our president, Jessica Givens, will be delivering her engaging and informative presentation “Five Secrets to College Admissions Gold” at our office on West Gray.

Cool Opportunity: Gap Year Fair at Episcopal HS!

We wanted to share some information about a cool opportunity coming up at Episcopal High School on February 24th: the HoustonGap Year Fair. This event is open to anyone in the Houston area and is a great way to get more information about different programs, what to expect, and how to tell who might be a good fit to take a gap year. Some students just aren’t ready to head straight to college and a structured gap year can help them to mature, gain additional experience, and start college on the right foot a year later.

Here’s all the information about the fair:

Houston Gap Year Fair

Monday, February 24, 2014

6:30 to 8:30 p.m. 

*Speaker at 6 p.m in Anderson Lecture Hall.  

Traditional fair to follow in the Underwood Student Center

 Episcopal High School

4650 Bissonnet St., Bellaire, TX  77401

 A Gap Year is a period of time between completing high school and beginning college when a student steps outside the traditional classroom experience.  This is a time to explore the world, reflect on personal values and goals, and prepare to take the next step in life.

Please register at www.usagapyearfairs.org.

If you’re considering a gap year or just a little curious, we hope you’ll attend!
