Susan Skrocki I founded Susan Skrocki College Consulting as a way to continue helping students and families in the field of education, having enjoyed a marvelous and satisfying twenty year career in teaching. Working with students and families is something I truly love to do. I particularly enjoy helping students develop a stronger sense of independence, responsibility and confidence as they navigate the tasks involved in applying to college. I visit and tour up to 30 college campuses yearly. My Certificate, awarded with distinction, in College Counseling from UCLA, active memberships in Higher Education Consultants Association and Pacific Northwest Association for College Admissions Counseling keep me current and involved in the profession of college consulting. I regularly present to peers during conferences and online workshops. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea47b696fb9c7885040d7b/1642750208623-6WCFHY2CFP8AQAFX0P2M/unsplash-image--2vD8lIhdnw.jpg Home - How can Susan Skrocki College Consulting help? Teenagers are incredibly busy juggling school assignments, studying for tests, participating in clubs and sports, and pursuing their own interests; all with the desire to be more independent. Add to those tasks searching for and applying to college and it really begins to feel like a lot. Susan Skrocki College Consulting helps with the oversight of the college application process, while keeping parents well informed of the progress each step of the way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea47b696fb9c7885040d7b/c6ec9b2e-e2c3-484a-9a08-931847ec7595/unsplash-image-1pAwJiCD60c.jpg Home - Kind words from happy clients Students and parents alike have thanked Susan Skrocki for her positive communication, effective assistance, personal connection and for keeping the college application timeline on track. https://www.susanskrockicollegeconsulting.com/meet-susan daily 0.75 2026-02-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea47b696fb9c7885040d7b/68938bc5-a3d7-4593-b8a3-9550e3a62d14/X2c%2BpFyDQMKamkFcfkNPnQ.jpg A little more about me... - Welcome… One of the most rewarding parts of my 20 year teaching career was getting to know each student and determining how to best encourage their personal growth. This student centered philosophy carries forward to my college consulting practice as I guide each student through their college application process. I realize the importance of working with each student as an individual to determine how I can help them navigate their own college journey. I also understand the importance of communication, keeping families informed as to the progress of the college application process. Parents and students will receive an email after every student meeting with an update. I am always available and open for questions or a conversation. My expert guidance helps students shine on their college applications by highlighting their unique skills, attributes, accomplishments and goals. I look forward to working with students in a friendly, engaging and purposeful manner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea47b696fb9c7885040d7b/2c6ae3c8-32c2-4362-94db-f2d5e16f3437/IMG_4574.jpg A little more about me... - Professional Community Professional development is a cornerstone of my practice. As an active member of Higher Educational Consultant’s Organization (HECA), I regularly attend and present to my peers at conferences and online workshops. My MBA in Marketing and years working in the business world, followed by twenty years of teaching and raising my own three now successful young adult children enable me to approach educational consulting from several perspectives. I learn from and am supported by wonderful colleagues as well. My IEC MasterMind group meets monthly to collaborate and discuss hot topics in the college application world. We even present together at conferences! Touring universities, both in the US and abroad, is another way I stay current on admission trends and priorities.

Instead they feel confident that they are on track to submit applications that represent their academics, accomplishments and genuine self. My services include, but are not limited to, the following: Explore and determine which college characteristics are important to you. Build a balanced college list that fits your academic, social, geographic and financial priorities. Review your high school academic achievements and extracurricular activities thus far and suggest ways to genuinely add involvement and leadership opportunities. Learn to explore and investigate college campuses virtually. Explore college majors and career paths that suit your natural skills and interests. Brainstorm and review essays so that your voice, characteristics, personality and goals stand out. Prepare for interviews and college visits.

This meeting helps to determine your priorities, timeline and goals, and provides time to have questions answered. Once your priorities and needs are set and a package is confirmed, Susan Skrocki will develop a personalized plan of action and begin to work with you to accomplish the necessary tasks in an engaging and organized manner. Regular meetings on Zoom, along with student assignments in between, keep the college search and application process moving along. The goal is to complete all tasks in a timely manner to avoid that “last minute crunch.” Parents and students are updated with an email after each meeting. Susan Skrocki is always available to discuss questions with families as they arise. It’s nice to have everyone on the same page! When should we get started? Strategy Start (9th & 10th grades) is designed to provide early guidance to freshmen or sophomores and their families who are ready to begin the college process. Clarification on classes, extracurriculars and answers to questions can help to pave a path for a smooth college journey. There is enough time to plan activities and classes that suit the student and help provide them with material for a well rounded application. Junior year is a prime time to start the process. Juniors are ready to build a college list, write essays and begin applications. There is still time to get involved in extracurriculars, community involvement and enrichment opportunities. Juniors benefit greatly by beginning the college process early and avoiding the “last minute crunch.” Seniors have quite a lot to accomplish in a short period of time with regards to college applications. Some college applications are due in November or early December. Seniors should begin the college application process ASAP. Senior start space is limited. Susan Skrocki accepts a limited number of clients for each graduating class to ensure an individual and personalized experience for every student.
