Arden Educational Consulting is an educational consulting practice committed to helping students of all backgrounds and abilities find the educational environment where they can best become who they want to be. Navigating the college admissions process can be a daunting task, filled with conflicting information, anxiety and confusing steps. We strive to help students and families focus on finding the right fit for their student. We systematically support students and parents through this journey guiding the student to be more confident, self-aware, and engaged in their education.
