Services

Six disciplines, one plan.

Each engagement is scoped to your family — never a fixed, one-size package.

01

College Planning

A calibrated school list, a realistic timeline, and a strategy for applications, essays, and financial aid — built around fit, not rankings alone.

02

Career Planning

A long-horizon view of fields, credentials, and experiences that gives the college choice its reason to exist.

03

Assessments

Structured evaluation of aptitude, interests, and readiness, so every recommendation is grounded in evidence.

04

Coaching

Ongoing one-to-one guidance for the student — executive functioning, interviews, and decisions — with the family in the loop at every step.

05

Alternative Pathways

When a four-year degree isn't the only answer — gap years, certificates, apprenticeships, and transfer routes mapped with the same rigor as the traditional path.

06

Skill Building

Targeted development of the hard and soft skills that turn a plan into outcomes — technical fluency, communication, and credentials a student can point to.

How it works

A process built like a private engagement.

Step 01

Discovery

We sit down with your family to understand goals, constraints, and what success actually looks like for your student.

Step 02

Strategy

A written plan covering schools, careers, assessments, and a dated timeline your family can act on.

Step 03

Execution

We work alongside your student through applications, decisions, and the transition ahead — with quarterly reviews.

Why private advisory

Beyond the College 101 basics.

School counselors and entry-level prep programs do important work — but they are built for breadth. NextGen Power is built for depth: one family, one advisor, one plan.

Who we serve

Families who plan ahead.

Ambitious families

Parents who want a deliberate, well-argued plan rather than a scatter of options.

First-generation strivers

Families navigating admissions for the first time, guided with clarity and patience.

Student athletes

Planning that balances recruitment, academics, and a career path beyond the sport.

Homeschool & TEFA families

Structured support for nontraditional paths, including students funded through TEFA.

Pricing & payment

Clear, fee-for-service. No fine print.

We are a private practice. Every family chooses the payment path that fits — private pay, TEFA, or a structured installment plan.

Private pay

Direct engagement

A tailored scope and a fixed fee, agreed in writing before we begin.

TEFA

TEFA-funded families

We work with families using Texas Education Freedom Accounts to fund planning services.

Payment plans

Structured installments

Spread the engagement across the academic year on a schedule that fits your household.

Results

Outcomes, not promises.

We measure success by the decisions a family makes with confidence — and the paths that open as a result.
