Transforming the admissions process into an empowering journey of self-discovery, putting your fate back into your own hands.
I am passionate about working with teens to nurture creativity, foster academic success, and highlight their unique attributes through powerful storytelling.
This is a snapshot of me celebrating my graduate degree in Secondary English Education. I remember the feeling of accomplishment, with my entire future ahead of me in a career I was excited about. I’m dedicated to helping you discover your best-fit school and create a successful path to a career you are passionate about.
College Bound Future is located in Woodbury, New York, but I enjoy working with students and their families virtually across every time zone in the country. If you live nearby, we’ll get to meet in person! Either way, I’ll support you with ongoing guidance, tools, and knowledge in a nurturing space where you can reflect, focus on your strengths, and develop a personal plan for success.

Allison Liebman, B.A. English, M.Ed.
After receiving an M.A. in English Education from Stony Brook University in 1995, I began my career teaching high school English at a leading school district in Plainview, New York. As an advisor for the student newspaper, yearbook, and literary magazine, I nurtured students’ creative expression and instilled my passion for writing. Although I was young (and often asked for a hall pass by colleagues), my students found me relatable, and I cherished my connections with them, many of whom I am still in touch with.
When I left my tenured position to raise a family, I maintained an active role as an educator, leading enrichment programs and writing workshops throughout Long Island and NYC. I’ve worked with teens to execute successful projects in publishing, research, and community leadership, fostering opportunities beyond traditional extracurriculars. My students have received recognition from Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, written and published books, and brought their screenplays to Manhattan stages. I’m very proud of their accomplishments.
Over the last two decades, I’ve helped hundreds of high school students craft exceptional college essays and competitive application profiles. The goal is for students to create an authentic “story” to share with admissions, use their voices to display unique attributes and stand out among thousands of applicants.
Since the official launch of College Bound Future, Inc. in 2019, professional development has been a priority. I spend significant time visiting colleges, meeting with admission reps, and attending conferences and workshops. The Certificate for Educational Planning (CEP) program through UC Irvine and my membership in IECA and NYSACAC are invaluable resources that enable me to provide accurate insight into the latest trends in college admissions.
As a parent of two college students, I understand the specific challenges and guidance needed to navigate the intricacies of college admissions. With genuine empathy and support, I share knowledge for sound decision-making, find colleges that are a perfect fit, and help families discover joy along the way.
