CollegeFitz Counseling

Helping 10th, 11th & 12th Graders & their parents navigate the college decision process.

Matthew Fitzsimmons

After 25 years as a school counselor, with the last decade being specifically in the high school with grades 11th and 12th, I decided to begin my own business. I have started up a college counseling service called CollegeFitz Counseling. I will provide help to current 10th, 11th and 12th grade students and parents with the application process, Common Application, scholarships, financial aid, course selection and all the fun stuff. If anyone has a student in high school or might know of others who are in need of these type of services, please reach out to me for a consultation or more information. Meetings will be done in-person, through FaceTime and through Google Meet. If interested, please call, text, email or Facebook message me to get started.
