38 Minutes: The average entire time a student spends with their high school counselor
From diffusing tensions at home over college essays to creating a strategic plan that sets students up for success, a great college counselor takes the stress out of the process. They help students identify the most challenging courses, prepare for necessary tests, engage in impressive extracurricular activities, and craft powerful essays and recommendations. Above all, they ensure a smooth, stress-free application experience.
Some counselors emphasize finding a college where a student “fits.” While this is important, at Professor Ivy League, we believe that students can fall in love with the best college they get into. Our focus is on helping students gain admission to the top schools their academic profiles can reach.
A study found that public high school counselors, on average, are responsible for 470 students. Even at prestigious private schools, counselors may prioritize certain students due to family connections or discourage others from applying to top schools to avoid competition. This lack of time and impartiality means they might not give your application the attention it deserves.
A 2013 study revealed that 26% of high-achieving high school students used private college counselors. However, the actual number is likely higher, as many families prefer to keep this assistance under wraps. The increased awareness and prevalence of private college counseling services today mean that more students are seeking expert help to gain a competitive edge.
Not always! Over the years, countless applicants have come to Professor Ivy League after being deferred or rejected during the Early admissions round, seeking answers to what went wrong. In many of these instances, they had already worked with independent college counselors, yet their applications still included cliché essays, activities that portrayed them as simply well-rounded, inappropriate coursework choices, and other issues. However, effective private college counselors who truly aim to help students gain admission to the top colleges will:
- Design a plan for students to take the most challenging courses available at their high school (and beyond).
- Develop a strategic plan for tackling the SAT, ACT, and AP exams.
- Guide students in choosing the right extracurricular activities that highlight a unique and compelling focus.
- Collaborate with students to brainstorm, draft, and refine exceptional essays tailored to each specific college.
- Help students prepare meaningful anecdotes for letters of recommendation, ensuring recommenders have strong material to work from.
- Provide interview preparation to ensure students make a lasting impression.
- Offer continuous guidance throughout the entire admissions process, addressing questions as they arise.
- Alleviate the stress students face during this critical period, making the journey smoother and more manageable.
