College planning can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to figure it out alone.

Our story

Why we built Your College Game Plan

We're Breanna Herd and Jamie Gazzano, two high school counselors who have helped many students and families with college planning.

The high school years fill up fast with questions about courses, applications, deadlines, scholarships, college fit, financial aid, athletics, and life after graduation. We created Your College Game Plan to help families move through those years with more clarity, confidence, and direction.
