Planning for and applying to college can seem overwhelming at times. But a college Counselor can help a student and their family to navigate the complicated and sometimes frustrating process. Here are a few examples of things a college counselor may be able to help you with:
- Crafting a balanced college list – You’re going to need to find schools that meet your wants and needs while also being realistic. A balanced college list contains safety, match, and reach schools to optimize your chances of getting into a university that will provide the experience you are looking for in a college.
- Comparing schools – Once you have your wish list prepared, you need to compare the schools so you know which are the best matches for you. Then you can go with the top one that you get accepted to.
- Preparing your admissions – In order to maximize your chances of receiving an acceptance letter, you need to know how to present your student profile in the right way. What should you include, what should you leave out, and how can you write the best essays? These are all topics to address with your college counselor.
