FAQ’S
Frequently Asked Questions
When should we start college counseling?
It’s never too early to start planning for college. Ideally, we begin working with students in 9th or 10th grade to build a strong academic and extracurricular foundation and to reduce stress later on. However, we regularly help juniors and seniors navigate the application process efficiently and confidently. Whether your student is just starting high school or approaching deadlines, we’ll meet them where they are to create a personalized plan for success.
How do your packages work?
During your consultation, we’ll help you decide what package might be best for you depending on where your student is in the process.
What makes you different from other IECs (independent educational consultants)?
What sets us apart from other Independent Educational Consultants is the depth and breadth of our real-world experience. With over 40 years of combined expertise working directly in schools, we have guided students and families through every stage of the college application process; not just as consultants, but as trusted professional school counselors. Over the years, we’ve also built strong relationships with hundreds of college representatives, giving us firsthand insight into what institutions are truly looking for beyond the application. This unique combination of experience, perspective, and connections allows us to offer guidance that is both practical and deeply informed by the realities of today’s admissions landscape.
