Parent Diagnostic
Dear Parent,
Thank you for taking the time to complete this quick diagnostic about what you believe are some important values in your student's college search. 

This diagnostic will help provide some great information that will begin creating the foundation for your student to answering questions like:
  • What colleges are a good fit for me?
  • What do I need in a college to be successful?
  • Where should I apply to get the best chance of admissions and scholarships? 

For best results, please answer the questions to the best of your abilities. Your student will be asked to complete their own survey, and both responses will be put together to help you have deeper conversations about what is valued in your family's college process.

If you have any questions about the diagnostic, please reach out to Dr. Amanda Sterk, Director of College & Career Advising, at amanda@methodlearning.com.
