Why Hire an Educational Consultant?
Let's face it – college admission has become exceedingly complex and the cost of college is daunting. High school counselors average 38 minutes talking with students about college - over the course of four years! And, the average counselor is responsible for over 400 students! Most schools simply do not have enough counselors, or enough counselors specializing in college admission, to meet the many and varied needs of their college-bound high school students.
That’s where we step in.
According to a study conducted by Lipman Hearne, in cooperation with the National Research Center for College and University Admissions
That’s where we step in.
- Individual Attention. We listen. We get to know you. We help you figure out what you are looking for and we support you through the college application process.
- Expertise. We know colleges. It’s what we do. We visit 20 - 30 colleges each year. We attend conferences where we talk with college admission representatives and stay on top of trends in college admission. We have real experience working in college admission and understand the nuances in how colleges make decisions among applicants.
- Time Saver. Sure, you could spend endless amounts of time researching colleges, learning about admissions, and figuring out college application requirements. Or, you could hire us instead.
- Preserve Family Life. Parents nagging students. Students annoyed by parents always asking about college. The college admission process can be a stressful time and a source of conflict in the home. It’s normal. We see it all the time. We help calm things down and reduce college-conversation conflict. Priceless!
- College is Expensive. Your home is probably the most expensive thing you’ve purchased. Chances are good that your child’s education is next. Investing in guidance from professionals makes sense.
