US military & DoDEA families
Every student deserves a plan that moves with the orders.
Independent, one-on-one college admissions guidance for military and DoDEA-connected families overseas — US, UK and EU universities, on your timezone, through every PCS.
PCS orders mid-application
A move in junior or senior year scrambles coursework, recommenders and deadlines exactly when consistency matters most.
Transcripts across systems
DoDEA, stateside, international and IB records have to be stitched into one coherent story — and the Interstate Compact only helps if you know how to use it.
US vs UK vs EU pathways
Common App, UCAS and European admissions run on different calendars, essays and entry rules. Choosing late narrows options.
Timezones and overstretched counselors
School counselors do their best with heavy caseloads. Stateside consultants sleep through your evening. You need someone who works on your clock.

- Testing plans built around OCONUS test-center reality
- Timelines tuned to DoDEA calendars, recommender handoffs and likely future orders

- Military-connected scholarship and aid strategy, FAFSA from overseas included

Questions we hear from this community
We're PCSing in the middle of junior/senior year. Is it too late?
No — but the earlier we start, the more options stay open. A mid-application move is exactly the scenario we plan for: we stabilize recommenders, secure transcripts before the move, and use the Interstate Compact where it applies.
Do you understand DoDEA specifically?
We live it. The founder's household is a SOFA-status family in Bavaria with a DoDEA-educator spouse and four children across the journey — DoDEA calendars, transcripts and counselor caseloads are daily reality here, not a case study.
