[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents of 11th-grade students preparing "in advance" for college, do you know any private admissions counselor/consultant who supports talented kids from middle-income homes? How much are their services? Do you have any recommendations for private consultants who cost no more than $3,000?

What are you looking for?

To build a good list of safeties, targets, and reaches, buy the Fiske book, read Niche, and scour your school's Naviance/Scoir data.
Run the Net Price calculators on the school websites to see if you will qualify for financial aid.
If you need a lot of merit, read some books on the subject research schools that give merit, and recognize your child will need to be a top candidate at the schools. So to have a realistic chance, they should be targets or low targets.
Go to your school's events/info sessions on timelines and tasks.

Clarify for yourself what you hope to get out of this consultant. The process is not really that complicated.
