Why hire an Independent Educational Consultant (IEC)?
Everyone deserves an objective and hardworking partner as their personal guide to the college admissions process.
Expertise
- IECs that focus specifically on the college landscape, trends and personnel can provide information and perspective not always found in high school guidance counselors or well-meaning friends and relatives
Up to Date Perspective
- College and admissions ARE NOT the same in this century as when parents went to college. The process and and preparation can be much more complex
- The pandemic changed not only how colleges view students, but also how students view college
Financial
- 4 year colleges and graduate school programs have become ridiculously expensive. The investment families are making in higher education is not to be taken lightly. An IEC can provide resources and guidance on the financial aid options as well as information on other ways to defray costs both upfront and after enrolling.
Getting a Head Start!
- Getting good grades may not be enough for those students focused on highly selective institutions. IECs start with students as early as 9th grade to build experience, opportunities and utilize tools to guide students through self-discovery.
Objective Student Assessment
- Students who experience a wholistic approach to college admissions often have a better sense of themselves and what type of college environment will provide not only an amazing place to live and learn for four (or five!) years, but also where they can find opportunities for their future beyond the academics
