Our services

Many factors play a role in a school’s suitability for your child. These include program reputation, location, size, sporting facilities, and extracurricular opportunities. We’ll help your child build a list of schools that match their priorities.

We also help you maximize the value of college visits and tours — after all, a fact-finding mission to a faraway campus can be a costly trip. Why not let us show you what to look out for during your visit, and what questions to ask recruitment professionals you meet. 

We look closely at transcripts, in- and out-of-school activities, awards, and talents that are of interest to college admissions staff. We can also help your child emphasize their achievements to put their best foot forward. 

We help your child build an effective resume, select the right teachers to provide letters of recommendation, and map out a timeline for all applications and their supporting materials. Managing deadlines for multiple schools isn’t an easy task – we help take the pressure off by keeping everyone on track.

We’ll work with your child to brainstorm essay topics and suggest format, structure, and content. Through continuous feedback, we can ensure their essays and personal statements are coherent and consistent, all while encouraging your child’s unique voice to shine through. 

We share inside tips about college admissions interviews with you and your child. Not only that, we coach your child through potential interview questions and help develop answers that resonate with them so they feel confident and comfortable in person or virtual interviews. 

Elite athletes need to compare schools that not only support their academic potential but also their commitment to sporting excellence. We provide them with targeted coaching, as well as help evaluate scholarship offers. Thousands of dollars are potentially on the line and financial packages are not always transparent. We deliver clarity.

Given the right tools and support, we believe everyone can succeed. At American College Consulting we have the expertise to assist everyone through the complex maze of college applications with their unique needs in mind. After all, no two brains are alike; no two students are alike. We promise your child will have our enthusiastic support.

While “college consulting” is in our name, we’re also experienced with helping parents find quality middle schools and high schools to suit their child's particular needs and aspirations. It’s never too soon to take an active role in your child’s education. Good planning and foresight will help set your child up for long-term success.

Obtaining a masters or doctoral degree can be an immensely rewarding journey, opening careers in advanced research. It’s also a considerable investment. We help you, or your child, make sound decisions that align with their aspirations and priorities.

Applying to performing and visual arts programs requires extra submissions. We specialize in monologue selections and audition coaching as well as art portfolio descriptions and artistic statements.
