Simplifying Your College Exploration Experience

We are recognized leaders in the profession of college counseling and have worked with high school and college students for over 40 years.  We teach future college admission counselors at UCLA and together we have over 100 combined years of expertise and leadership in every phase of college planning. 

What a trip! We lucked out in our fall 2022 college tour in the Pacific Northwest, as the sun was shining and the birds were chirping. Last October we visited the University of Oregon, Oregon State University, University of Washington, Seattle University, and Gonzaga University. Students on the tour were treated to a great breadth of schools with something for everyone and surprises for all. Three Athens Advisors counselors joined the students and were available for Q&A on the bus and at the hotel. 

Athens Advisors visited Boston area colleges last July. We kicked off the tour visiting Harvard and MIT on the first day, then visit Northeastern, Olin College of Engineering, Boston College, Providence College, Bryant University, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and finished at Tufts.

One of the best comments from a student attending was, “This trip was amazing. I learned about colleges that I never heard of before. I learned that it’s more important to go to a school that fits me rather than a big name.”  

Congratulations to our Athens Advisors-sponsored team at the 2021 USBOXLA Nationals! We are so proud of our team comprised of high school athletes from throughout the US. 

The team finished with three wins and one loss in the round robin and played for bronze in the playoffs falling to the veteran box lacrosse team Denver Elite in the last period. Team Athens scored 37 and allowed just 20 goals in its five games at the Nationals. Notable is the fact that this team had never practiced together!
