Higher Places offers comprehensive college planning and career development services designed to equip individuals and organizations with resources needed to successfully achieve their goals. Using a holistic approach, we create customized plans for each client to fully address their needs.

Higher Places is a proud partner to churches, schools, and other local community agencies to expand educational and career services to marginalized communities. 

Higher Places offers comprehensive college planning tools that ease the anxiety and frustration that can accompany the college process. We believe that all students should have the option to attend college regardless of their family’s economic status.  Our ultimate goal is to make higher education opportunities more available and more affordable for students and their families.

We provide individualized counseling to educate students and their families on all aspects of the college search, application, and selection process.  Using a holistic approach, we help students explore their needs and interests to determine the best college fit.  We have experience in working with: first-generation college students, student athletes, students transitioning from military service, and students with disabilities.

We also assist students and families through the financial aid application process, including the FAFSA and CSS Profile. We walk families through calculators to ensure full understanding of the financial expectation. 

Our process is approachable. Our prices are affordable, and packages are available to meet your needs.  We also offer special financing options for community non-profits and religious institutions.
