The Blueprint Service
Whether your student is a senior getting ready to apply to college, or a freshman planning out the next four years, anyone can benefit from a Union Hall Advising Blueprint. This is a service for families that want our expert guidance but don't want a lengthy engagement.
Here's how it works:
You fill out an intake questionnaire that gives us everything we need to know about your student
We review it ahead of time in preparation for a call with you, your student and our Head of Admissions Advising
We spend an hour on the phone together, understanding where your student is now and where they want to be
During our call, we create a strategic roadmap with specific action items to get you where you want to go
After the call you'll have everything you need to execute your college admissions strategy either with us as your partner, or on your own
When you sign on for our Complete Service, we go way beyond the strategy of blueprinting your action items and actually help you get there. We help you prepare every application, write every essay, and ensure that your narrative comes through in everything you send to colleges. Our Complete Service includes access to your personal advisor through the entire process.
Benefits include:
Multiple Blueprinting Sessions
Ongoing, one-on-one virtual meetings
Narrative strategy development & refinement
College list creation with matches by program, fit, financial generosity & selectivity

Most importantly, when you join on with The Complete Service, you will have an advocate throughout the entire process. An expert to call on and provide guidance on every detail of the application process. We get in the mud with you and make sure that you are putting out the best applications possible.

We've been working with the team at Union Hall for years. They guided our son through high school. It's been great to have them at his side. There's no way he would have the resume he has now without their help.”

We really liked the pragmatism of the leaders at Union Hall. They approached this like a project which helped quell some of the emotion and kept everyone on track. They really know what they are doing.”
