Preparing Students for Higher Education and Success

Capstone Consulting is an education consulting firm that equips students with the skills they need to achieve academic success regardless of their background.

About Us

Our founder, Dan Krhin, successfully secured a private foundation grant where only 20 schools were selected nationwide out of 200 applicants; this created the high school to college bridge program and led to the establishment of a unique financial literacy course that preceded the federal mandate by a number of years.

In only 10 years, Dan’s expertise has proudly aided more than 110 students to enter graduate programs at some of the most prestigious institutions in the country, 55 of these students immediately entered Ph.D. programs.

In assisting the students, we blend interesting data, theory, and research. We also make sure that our practical presentations have a significant, long-lasting, and powerful impact on the students.  

Financial Literacy, Investing and Retirement Planning-Capstone-Consulting

For the past four years 2021-2024, 77 students, mostly from lower socio-economic, first generation backgrounds have completed a set of educational and information sessions about financial literacy with a specific focus on investing at an early age in planning for retirement. The unique model that these students completed provided gave each student with immense knowledge about investing in stock and non-stock vehicles as many of these students come from families that have little to no knowledge about long-term investment planning for retirement.

In surveys given to students when they completed the investing sessions, the overwhelming response was that they have now addressed two very common reasons why many people have little to no funds saved for a comfortable retirement.
