College Admissions Help | College Counseling Services USA

College admissions have become very competitive, and admission officers are looking for more than just grades and test scores. An expert college counselor and early college planning can help you reach your college goals. In addition, there are a vast array of scholarship and financial aid opportunities available to students.

As getting into a college of choice has become an increasingly competitive and complex, the right advice and guidance has never been more important. High school counselors typically don’t have the time and parents don’t have the knowledge (or time). A typical public school counselor in the U.S. now has an average caseload of over 400 students. According to The American School Counselor Association, overburdened public high school counselors have a “significantly decreased ability…to work individually with students in navigating the complex financial aid and college admission process.” A private college admissions counselor will guide you, step-by-step, through the complete college planning and application process. Professional college admissions assistance and guidance can help you reach your college goals effectively!
