| Q: |
How can College Coach help my student?
|
| A: |
College Coach assists high school students and their families through the entire college admissions process. Our comprehensive curriculum covers everything from college selection to essay writing. College Coach counselors, all former senior admissions officers from the nation’s top colleges, work individually with students to ensure their applications are completed in a way that makes them stand out from other students with similar grades and SAT scores. |
| Q: |
Why does my child need to work with someone other than his or her guidance/college counselor on the college admissions process?
|
| A: |
Today’s high school guidance counselors are overworked. In addition to handling your child’s college process, they are also responsible for test administration, student discipline, family issues, course selection and more! As a result, it’s nearly impossible for them to give your child the attention that he or she needs. As a matter of fact, College Coach receives many referrals from college counselors at private and public schools. |
| Q: |
We have a friend who used a private counselor. How is College Coach different?
|
| A: |
College Coach private counselors are considered to be the leaders in the industry. Our counselors come from the nation’s top colleges including Yale, Vassar, Columbia and The University of Pennsylvania. Each counselor is an expert in College Coach’s curriculum and also draws upon years of college admissions experience. |
| Q: |
When is the right time to start working with College Coach?
|
