How a Certified Educational Planner Can Give Your Student a Collegiate Edge  -  Stephanie Meade

Stephanie Meade has been working with teenagers and their families and the college process for 30 years. In addition to providing college guidance to hundreds of teens, she and her company, The Collegiate Edge, offered standardized test prep for 25 years, as well as academic support and mentoring to a range of students, including those with ADHD and mild learning and emotional challenges. The neuroscience of learning and the teen brain have long fascinated her, and she enjoys weaving that information into her work with families. Modern parenting, and how it has changed over the last 30 years, is another favorite topic. Stephanie holds the designation of Certified Educational Planner, the highest level of competency awarded in the profession. She is a member of the National Association for College Admission Counseling, Higher Education Consultants Association, and Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA). She has served on a number of professional boards and committees, on the faculty for IECA’s Summer Training Institute, and enjoys mentoring newer members of the profession. She presents regularly at national conferences and community events on topics related to college planning and parenting teens. In the past year, she was quoted in the Wall Street Journal and the Hollywood Reporter, and was a panelist on “Deep Dive” for Fox Nation, responding to questions about the profession raised by the “Varsity Blues” scandal.
