About Felicia

Over the last 15 years, our Founder, Felicia Fahey, has built her bespoke method by blending her own experience with the expertise of her network: colleagues and advisors from Stanford, the University of California, and UPenn-Jerome Fisher admissions teams, MIT alumni, Apple User Experience veterans, and creatives from the Storytelling Project and the University of Michigan. Felicia has drawn together and trained a team of progressive educators, who carry out the core values of Fahey Associates. Our team lifts all our students to their potential: students of all levels and disciplines, athletes, artists, and students who are underserved or have faced medical and learning challenges. In our effort to make college more accessible, we donate our time to providing pro-bono support to underserved students and to educating the public sector including libraries, high school counseling departments, and learning enrichment programs.

As a member of The National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), Fahey Associates abide by its Code of Ethics and Professional Practices (ECPP).

3 Pillars

Strategy

Undefined goals can lead to stagnation. We help your student to define a meaningful path and its required milestones.

Structure

The absence of structure can feel overwhelming. Our program ensures students meet both high-school and college application deadlines.

Support

Doubt and unanswered questions can be unsettling. We check in regularly with students and monitor their progress and development.
