Business Model

It doesn’t take long for word to spread among high school students about the great results that come from working with Class 101. After a free initial consultation with Class 101, counselors meet one-on-one with college-bound students every 2-5 weeks, typically after school or on weekends, depending on the time of year and the grade level of the student. Parents are not present at the individual counseling sessions, although Class 101 is in constant communication with them about their child’s progress.
