Christen Hebert Arafeh
College admissions expert, scholarship strategist and founder of Crescent City College Consulting in Gretna, Louisiana. She earned over $900,000 in scholarships as a student, and now helps New Orleans families get into the right college with the money to pay for it.
A mom of four who knows what families carry
Christen works with students across Greater New Orleans on everything from choosing a major to accepting an offer. As a mom of four, she understands the demands families face, and her mission is to take the stress out of college planning so students are ready for the next chapter.
She focuses on every part of the process in one place: applications, test prep, student loans, essay help, financial aid and scholarships. Every decision a student makes affects their future, especially how much debt they take on along the way.
