Why Working With a College Planning Expert is So Important!

College admissions strategiesCollege admissions is getting more competitive than ever. The admission statistics to earn acceptance into universities keeps getting lower each year, with earning acceptance to many of the great universities now into the single digit percentages. A well thought-out game plan and strategy is paramount.

But counselors at high schools are overworked, understaffed, and resources are spread thin. The average student-to-counselor ratio is: 464 to 1. And for California schools, the average student-to-counselor ratio is even worse at: 622 to 1.

While less for private schools, counselors simply do not have the time, resources, and energy to devote personalized and customized attention to each student.

What does this mean for you:

  • There are simply not enough counselors to help students develop a comprehensive game plan and strategy.
  • Counselors can’t give personalized attention to each student’s educational journey.
  • A customized, individualized and strategic game plan is not developed.

Therefore, this leads to:

  • Decreased chance to get into the college of your choice.
  • Decreased chance to maximize financial aid to pay for college.

As 2024 kicks into another exciting year for students pursuing their educational journeys, we are humbled that we get to serve so many wonderful, hardworking, and ambitious students and develop them to the best of their abilities, helping them earn acceptances to their dream colleges–and helping them to earn lots of merit-based scholarships (money) to help pay for the exorbitant cost of college!
