Welcome to Creedman Educational Consulting!

​​

I help high school students figure out their next steps after graduation, including finding the right college, exploring career options, and making informed choices.
 

I work with students to identify schools that genuinely fit who they are and what they want, and to develop a plan aligned with their goals, timeline, and priorities. I also guide students through the application process, helping them craft essays and materials that authentically represent them.
 

Along the way, I provide the structure and feedback students need to take ownership of their process. The goal isn’t just getting into college—it’s helping students develop the independence, insight, and confidence to navigate their next steps.

About Maya
Maya_Creedman college admissions and career coach

Maya Creedman, MA

​

My perspective on college planning is shaped by my experience across both K–12 and higher education, as a former admissions reader, and as a parent of college students.
 

I hold an MA in Education from UCLA, a California teaching credential, and a graduate certificate in College Admissions and Career Counseling from UC Berkeley. I am an active member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA).
 

In addition to traditional U.S. college admissions, I support students exploring transfer pathways, alternative educational options, and international universities.

How I Support Students

Every student is unique. I offer hourly consultations, discounted hourly packages for students at any stage of the college planning process, and a comprehensive package for juniors and seniors. All packages include personalized college planning and application tools.
