Dr. Cathy Richter
Why CPC?
With over 40 years of experience in education at the elementary, middle, high school, and university levels, including roles as a teacher, counselor, principal, and university instructor, I have a deep understanding of the education system. I understand students and what they need to make the most of the opportunities awaiting them. I also know how busy parents are and how little information parents have about how education works and the various options available.
I earned my undergraduate degree in business education and my MA in Educational Counseling from the University of Missouri. I earned my Ph.D. in Educational Leadership at Saint Louis University. I am certified as a guidance counselor and principal in both Missouri and Florida.
I am the founder and consultant at Collegiate Prep Consulting, where I support students and their families throughout every step of the college preparation and application process.
