Our Services
We have hundreds of success stories, a track record of innovation, and a knack for making the complex feel manageable. Sequoia Advisors is the trusted partner families need to navigate the ever-changing world of college admissions.
1:1 College Advising
Let’s address the elephant in the room: yes, our 1:1 advising services cost money. But let’s flip the script for a second. College is one of your family's biggest investments, and the stakes are high. Choosing the right college, nailing the essays, navigating financial aid, and creating a strong application—are all part of a process that can shape your student’s future. That’s where we come in.
Sequoia Advisors offers three thoughtfully designed advising plans—Essentials, Advanced, and Signature —tailored to meet families where they are and provide the support they need. Do you need help with specific aspects of the process? We’ve got you covered with our à la carte options for everything from essay writing to application reviews.
Our plans aren’t just services; they’re partnerships. From the first conversation to the final application submission, we’re with you, breaking down what feels overwhelming into a clear, manageable path. Whether your family needs foundational help or comprehensive advising, we’ve got an option that fits.
Yes, it’s an investment, but it’s an investment in clarity, confidence, and getting it right the first time. We’re not just helping your student apply to college; we’re helping them step into their future with purpose and pride.
Let’s make this happen together.
Educational Testing
Sequoia Advisors provides comprehensive educational diagnostic testing for K through 12 students and college students to help identify learning differences, clarify a learner’s strengths and needs, and guide the next right steps for support. Our evaluations can inform special education and intervention planning, document learning profiles for school-based services, and support updated testing needs for accommodations in college and on admissions-related exams when required.
We administer a range of nationally recognized assessments and inventories, including the Woodcock-Johnson Tests V, CTOPP, and the WISC V, along with additional measures selected to match the student’s referral concerns. Families receive clear, actionable results that translate data into practical recommendations for instruction, study strategies, and appropriate accommodation planning.
College Search Presentations
At Sequoia Advisors, knowledge is the foundation for making informed decisions during the college admissions process. That’s why we offer free, engaging, and informative college presentations designed to demystify the journey to higher education for students and their families.
Our dynamic, hour-long presentations, like “The State of College Admissions” and “Demystifying the College Search Process,” provide clear, actionable insights into the ever-evolving landscape of college admissions. From understanding test-optional policies to navigating Early Decision and Early Action applications, our presentations cover the critical topics that students and families need to know. These sessions are also perfect for schools, community organizations, and parent groups.
