Our Philosophy

 

Define Your Why

 
 

“Why do you want to go to College?” This should be the central question in any good college search. Whether pursuing a small liberal arts college or a larger urban university, Hoven Educational Consulting strives to aid each student as they define their own search. Having worked over 20 years with college admissions in the U.S., as well as extensive work with colleges and universities in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Europe, we are well-equipped to meet the parameters of any college search. We also understand the needs of students seeking specialization, whether athletic recruitment, academic programming, or studies in the arts. Let us help you define your WHY and illuminate your college search experience.


Student-Centered Approach

 

At Hoven Educational Consulting, we believe a student-centered approach is vital to the college search experience. The college search is more than determining one’s next step in education. It is a process of maturation where students move from adolescence into young adulthood. Keenly aware of this maturation, our process is a developmental approach, allowing for reflection, evaluation, and understanding as the student embarks on the search and later the application. With Hoven Educational Consulting’s counseling approach, your student will explore their past, present, and future, leading to a foundational understanding of who they are and what type of college experience they are looking for.
