CALLING ALL PARENTS OF COLLEGE-BOUND TEENS…
Let’s Make College List-Building Easy!
Get the exact steps you need to help your teen build the perfect “right fit” college list from start to finish
YOU’RE NOT ALONE IF YOU’RE FEELING LIKE IT’S HARD TO FIND COLLEGES THAT:
LET’S REMOVE THAT FEAR. NOW.
My 28 years of college admissions experience will point you in the right direction, even if you’re…
FREAKED OUT THAT YOUR TEEN’S CHANCES OF GETTING INTO A ‘GOOD’ COLLEGE ARE SQUASHED BY THE CHAOS OF THE LAST 3 YEARS AND ESPECIALLY IF…
YOU’RE LOOKING TO PUT YOUR TEEN’S MENTAL HEALTH FIRST!
I’VE GOT YOU, FRIENDS.
This masterclass in college list building will help, especially if you’re…
👋 Feeling a bit dazed and confused about how to even begin or what to expect with the college search process
👋 Dealing with a teen who can’t seem to tell you what they want in a college (or a major!)
👋 Wanting to help your teen land at a college where they’ll get the most ROI
👋 Mistakenly believing that you can’t start the college search process as early as grade 8 or 9 (Yikes! Don’t wait!)
👋 Worried your teen is going to overreach or won’t have great options
👋 Super excited to get started compiling a list of colleges but your teen hasn’t quite caught up with your eager attitude
👋 Starting to map out college visits and want to avoid costly mistakes
By the way, let’s be really clear.
If you’re worried that landing a spot they love requires your teen to send out 20+ applications just like your sister’s/neighbor’s/coworker’s/best friend’s kid... 🤯
When you have the perfect college list, you’ll NEVER have to do this. I promise.
I see you. No matter what stage you’re in.
You’ll want to attend my live, online masterclass where I’ll help you figure out exactly what to do next.
HERE’S THE THING…DECIDING WHERE YOUR TEEN WILL APPLY TO COLLEGE IS A VERY PERSONAL DECISION
And a lot goes into building the perfect list of colleges…WAY MORE than you’ve been taught to think!
It’s more than an analysis of your teen’s academic record and test scores.
It’s more than knowing how to calculate your teen’s REAL GPA (hint: it’s not the one on their high school transcript.)
It’s more than taking your teen on a bunch of campus visits to “feel the fit.”
It’s more than what you’ve heard from your high school counselor!
…but there are plenty of great matches to be made for your teen. You just need to know how to find them.
(Good thing you’re here.)
BRACE YOURSELF, BECAUSE THIS MAY BE A FREE MASTERCLASS, BUT I NEVER HOLD BACK A THING.
PINKY PROMISE.
Over our 90-minutes together, I’ll give you the whole truth and nothing but…
Here’s what you’ll learn:
- The 3 BIGGEST Mistakes Parents Make when identifying colleges of interest (because let’s face it-this is the area where a lot of parents just wing it!)
- The critical conversations you must have with your teen BEFORE you start naming colleges!
- What it really means to “find the right fit.”
- The 4 Stages of The College List Building process (so you know exactly where you’re at and what to do next!)
- The biggest myths in college list building (FYI: waiting until your teen’s junior year is one of them!)
- Everything you need to BE 100% READY to build The Perfect College List!

THIS LIVE ONLINE MASTERCLASS IS FOR YOU
If you’re a parent of an 8th-11th grade college bound teen who wants to…
- Fearlessly embrace the college search process (and ignore all the unsolicited advice.)
- STOP wondering WTF you should be doing and when (and HOW to calm down the stress & pressure of it all!)
- Feel confident picking colleges with your teen (and ditch the need to have the perfect amount of ‘reach’ or ‘safety’ schools because every college your teen picks will be a great fit.)
- Engage your teen in meaningful, low-pressure college conversations as early as middle school (Nope. It’s not too early!)
- Choose the perfect colleges for your uniquely awesome teen (rather than select certain colleges just for their bumper sticker cred. Ahem…I know you know what I’m talking about.)
- Empower yourself with clear, actionable advice from a trusted college admissions strategist with 28 years of experience in college admissions (and plenty of lessons from my own personal experience building my daughter’s perfect fit college list!)

So, I ALREADY GAVE YOU THE STRAIGHT UP TRUTH.
THAT’S ME–I’M A STRAIGHT SHOOTER. 😉
Check out what other parents have to say about the secrets I spill inside the masterclass that will motivate your teen to pick “right-for-them” colleges
WHO AM I & WHAT QUALIFIES ME TO ADVISE YOU ABOUT COLLEGE ADMISSION?
WELL, I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED…
Hey there,
I’m Lisa McLaughlin, M.Ed.
ENGLISH TEACHER TURNED COLLEGE READINESS COORDINATOR, APPLICATION READER, NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED COLLEGE ADMISSIONS SPEAKER AND NOW EXPERT COLLEGE ADMISSIONS STRATEGIST.
Whew. That’s a mouthful.
Here’s what you need to know.
After more than 2 decades working in college admission, I left the rat race.
Why?
What I was being asked to do was WAY out of alignment with my values.
I saw what the process often did to families.
I saw the pressure it was putting on our teen's mental health. Pushing them to rack up more credentials in their 17 years than most of us have as adults. (Am I right?!)
And I felt like my role was adding to the mania that has become college admissions (Gulp).
And I hated that. So I left.
Now, as the founder and CEO of The Admissions Formula, I lead with my values & do the right thing.
For me. (That means dishing out the raw truth every single day with a whole lot of candour & a big dose of compassion.)
For the 1000s of families with whom I’ve worked (that means helping their teens find and get accepted to their perfect fit colleges without drowning in pressure or stress. R-E-L-I-E-F!)
For my own high school senior (that means actually using the strategies I teach on my own kid! And guess what? They work!)
…and they will for you, too, but only if you join me for Setting The Stage To Build The Absolutely Perfect College List!
