Connecticut (CT) College Admissions Consultants

Connecticut high school students are some of the most competitive applicants to elite colleges in the nation, boasting high test scores, impressive extracurricular activities and a high level of preparedness to succeed in college. However, according to the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), Connecticut has a high student-to-counselor ratio of 332:1, falling well short of the recommended 250:1 high school student-to-counselor ratio. With a high 332:1 student-to-counselor ratio, students in Connecticut may not even receive an hour of college admissions counseling from their high school counselors each year. Because of this, many parents are turning to private Connecticut college admissions consultants for help with college admissions counseling.

As the only firm in the industry with college admissions success rates verified by a Vault 50 independent accounting firm, Solomon Admissions Consulting boasts the deepest bench in the United States of over 100 former Ivy League and top-tier college admissions officers who work as college admissions consultants with students in Connecticut.

When hiring a private Connecticut college admissions consultant, it’s critical to work with a former Ivy League or top-tier college admissions officer as they are the only ones who have reviewed thousands of college applications, voted on who gets admitted and know the preferences of each top school inside and out. A local solo Connecticut college admissions counselor simply will not know what our team of former college admissions officers know and will not be able to provide the same insider strategy, success rates and level of guidance.

Our Connecticut college admissions counselors work with students first and foremost to develop a compelling strategic positioning plan that positions students for success in the elite college admissions process. Once the ideal positioning strategy is selected, we coach students on the right extracurricular activities and summer plans to maximize their college admission odds. We then work with students senior year on crafting the perfect school list, strategically picking out the right ED/EA school, crafting a compelling common application main essay, crafting strong supplemental essays that show fit, recommendation letters, and preparing students for college interviews.
