OnTrack+
Cohort with RioProgress is free and application-based. But we know not everyone can join Cohort right now—and some students want occasional one-on-one help. That’s why we’re offering OnTrack+: light-touch, targeted support that keeps you moving.
Just need someone to look over an essay or a scholarship application? We are still able to help. Get a chance to meet with a counselor for -on-1 revision help for an admissions essay, or a quick glance to review your college lists by leveraging a counselor who can answer your questions.
How We Help
To help students who are interested in attending 4 year universities and programs, the personal statement essay will serve as the most critical in ensuring your child's personality, capabilities, intelligence, and motivation is clearly communicated to the admissions officer. We know how difficult it can be for students to articulate 18 years of life, 12 years of formal education, hobbies, extra-curriculars, family, and more in under 700 words.
