Why CollegeGroove?
CollegeGroove is an intentionally small practice focused on helping students make confident, well-informed college decisions. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, guidance is tailored to each student’s academic profile, goals, and priorities, allowing them to present themselves authentically and effectively in the admissions process.
Strong academic records are common among applicants to selective colleges. What often distinguishes outcomes is how clearly a student’s strengths, interests, and priorities come through in the application. CollegeGroove helps students present themselves in a way that is both authentic and compelling, improving how their application is understood and evaluated, and supporting enrollment at colleges where students are positioned to thrive, not just gain admission.
Lauren brings extensive firsthand knowledge of colleges across the country through regular campus visits, conversations with admissions officers, and ongoing professional development. This informed perspective allows families to make decisions grounded in a deeper understanding of campus culture and current admissions realities, not just published statistics.
CollegeGroove provides private college admissions counseling for students virtually and in person throughout the NC Triangle and across the United States, helping families approach college decisions with clarity, confidence, and a focus on long-term student success and satisfaction.
