The counselor who knows the student well could write the recommendation, but you really need a counselor who knows the college process well. The counselor cannot know the process well or have any relationships with colleges/ universities if they are only handling the process once very four years. It's a weakness that could be fixed by realigning the counselor responsibilities.[/quote]

Agree - and it is probably on the margins where it matters. Things like ED/EA and the other permutations that are popping up, financial aid and scholarships, new SAT vs. ACT -- the basics stay the same but there are subtle shifts that are harder to stay on top of it you aren't living it day to day.

Early Decision and Early Admission applications to colleges -- these are great options for students who truly know their first choice but also can have implications for the financial aid process. [/quote]
