The SAFE Steps™ Process:
SELECTION: Align abilities and passions of each student into a purpose, setting a vision for the future.
ACCEPTANCE: Understand where each student "fits" for college. Know which schools you are highly valued and offer the most support.

EXECUTION: Get ready, aim, then fire. Learn "Steps to College" and you will be in control with a predictable outcome of success.
