CollegeAdvisor.com advisors include former admissions officers and graduates or current students from top universities in the US. This means that they have recently been in your shoes, can tell you all about student life at your prospective schools, and are high achievers who will pass their expertise to you. We also have former admissions officers on our team, which means that you will get firsthand insight into how you can win the college admissions process. Ultimately, CollegeAdvisor.com advisors are well positioned to become your ally throughout high school and into college apps. They will help you turn a stressful process into a positive, personal growth experience.

The average high school counselor to student ratio is 1:482. This, unfortunately, means that most students get very little personalized mentorship from their school counselor. At CollegeAdvisor.com, we provide expert-level, rigorously-trained advisors who will mentor you one-on-one. We help you make all the right choices at critical junctures—from which test to take, to which extracurricular to pursue, to how to tackle a challenging essay. Standing on the shoulders of giants, our students rise above the pack and land in the most selective schools in the nation.

From community college, to state schools, to the Ivy League, our mission is to help you turn your college dreams into reality. We believe in higher education for all, and while we have high success with elite school admissions, we have the expertise to support you in whatever endeavor you set for yourself.

Video calls can be scheduled with your advisor of choice at a time most convenient for you. You can also submit your essay to your advisor of choice, who will return your work with detailed comments, in-line suggestions, and a CollegeAdvisor.com Scorecard mirrored after the admissions office.

We offer a free, powerful web app designed to help you keep track of your applications, view all essay requirements, and track progress. In addition, we host free webinars, from student panels with current students at T20 universities, to how to use application portals. In addition, if you choose one of our advising plans, our advisors will respond to your emails and questions quickly, typically within 24 hours, and completely free of charge.

CollegeAdvisor.com believes in both quality and affordability. That's why our plans start at $49 a month, an unbeatable price in the traditionally expensive college consulting industry. On top of that, for every three paid customers, we offer one inner-city school student free college consulting. We pride ourselves in the low cost, high quality service we offer our students.

We have advisors specializing in financial aid and scholarships. They have experience applying to and winning national scholarships with less than 1% acceptance rates, and have negotiated financial aid packages to make attendance at their dream schools possible. After all, affordability must follow acceptance when turning a college dream into reality.
