When hiring a private college admissions counselor in Palo Alto and Atherton, it’s critical to work with a former 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 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.
