SAT Foundations
Build the skills now that lead to higher SAT scores later.
A live online course for underclassmen
Get ahead before junior year
The most successful SAT students don’t begin preparing during junior year—they enter it already prepared.
By junior year, students are balancing:
- more rigorous coursework
- extracurricular commitments
- college planning
- PSAT and SAT testing
Students who build strong academic foundations before junior year are able to:
- approach testing with confidence
- perform more effectively in honors and AP-level classes
- avoid rushed or last-minute SAT prep
- achieve stronger results with less stress
SAT Foundations helps students begin that process early, so when junior year arrives, they are ready.
Course Overview
SAT Foundations is an eight-hour live online course designed for underclassmen who want to strengthen the core academic skills that support future SAT success, while also gaining early insight into the college planning process.
This is not a cram course.
It is a focused, small-group academic program that builds the reading, writing, and math skills students will rely on throughout high school, and it provides guidance on how those skills connect to future college opportunities.
Course Details
- 4 live online sessions (2 hours each)
- 8 total instructional hours
- Small-group format
- College planning and readiness overview
- Enrollment limited to 10 students
Tuition: $549
Early enrollment (before May 31): $499
