[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Find someone who has actually worked FULL TIME in a college admission office or as a high school counselor. It's amazing how many people who had a part time grad assistant or reader (not decision maker) job in admissions offices that talk as if they were full time AOs. [/quote]

This is spot on! Ideally, you should work with someone who has done both of these before starting an independent counseling practice. That will make a huge difference and often does impact the cost of the services (the more experienced ones charge more, not shocking I suppose). When looking at the pricing for Nina Marks, don't forget that she breaks up her packages by year, but you have to have someone during junior AND senior year at a minimum. You can expect to pay about 5,000-10,000 for a package to get you through junior and senior year with most experienced consultants. Look at the IECA website directory for vetted options. Anyone can sign up through NACAC, the link above - there is no vetting.

You have to search separately by state - so DC will exclude consultants in VA/MD and vice versa.

Remember that this is an anonymous board, and anyone can self-promote. Going through IECA makes the most sense. [/quote]
