Meet your advisor - Denise Bynum
Picture
Hi!  I'm Denise - ready to work with you as you plan for college.  This is an exciting time for high school students!   Time for all the hard work to payoff.  Time to see where the next chapter of life will be set.  Do you see yourself close to home?  Far away?  On a large campus?  In small classrooms? Studying to fulfill your dreams? Studying to find out what your dreams are?  Quietly contemplating life on the campus quad?Cheering on the football team to a winning season?   Do you enjoy spirited discussions? Large classrooms? Individual attention? Do you know what you want to study? (It's okay if you don't!)  What is YOUR definition of a good school? My definition is a school that enhances your positive qualities, builds on natural strengths, challenges you, and prepares you.  There are over 4000 4-year colleges in the United States and choosing the best fit for YOU can be overwhelming.

How can I help?  We can work together on specific parts of the Admissions Process:
  • -Creating a College List by determining what is important to you 
  • -Creating a Schedule with specific milestones
  • -Preparing for standardized testing
  • -Preparing essays
  • -Preparing the application packages
  • -Evaluating transcripts and extracurricular activities
My philosophy for college applications is the same as it is for life in general:  Semper Bona Fac!  Always Do The Most Good.  Always Do The Extra Credit.  We'll meet regularly and you can call, text or email me ANY time you have a question - I'm here for you!


Ready to work with students
After 14 years on the university side of higher education, (two years directing the Executive MBA program at TCU and twelve years with the Texas MBA at Dallas/Fort Worth (University of Texas at Austin), I learned a lot about the admissions process.  I know how carefully admissions teams review candidates and I know some of the do's and don'ts when creating your application package.  I've been working with high school students independently since 2014.  I'm looking forward to sharing my knowledge with you.
  
I completed the Certificate for Independent Educational Consultants at the University of California-Irvine and am a member of TACAC, NACAC,  IECA, and HECA and follow all Code of Ethics Statements. 

You can reach me by phone 817-307-8409 or email with any questions.  I work in Fort Worth, Texas and can meet with students here or around the country via skype, email, and text.
