STAMZ provides personalized consulting services to high schools and individual students, focusing on college counseling, TCK/CCK support, and enhancing school counseling departments. We aim to help schools and students thrive in the college admissions journey.

While school counselors are invaluable, STAMZ offers a specialized, objective, and deeply personalized level of support. We can dedicate more time to individual students, provide out-of-the-box solutions for unique school challenges, and offer expertise in niche areas like TCK/CCK transitions and recommendation writing, and building the college list. We work with your existing school counselor team, not instead of them.

We offer both! Our services are designed to be flexible and accessible, accommodating your needs whether you're local or international.

Maintaining trust and confidentiality is paramount. All information shared with STAMZ is held in strict confidence, adhering to professional ethical guidelines.

It's never too early to start thinking about your college journey! We often begin working with students in 9th or 10th grade to help with course selection, extracurricular planning, and building a strong foundation. However, starting in grade 11, our approach is more hands-on and time intensive to provide the support and guidance you need.
