[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m doing this now.

It’s word of mouth only. No advertising, no website. I got the UCLA certificate but honestly it was a waste.

I only do rising seniors.

$300/hr ad hoc in junior year

$5000 for ED/Early school (entire app)
Each subsequent set of supplements is $1-2.5k depending on length of supplements. My rec is to do 2-5 RD apps prior to late December (I won’t be available then - or if I am it’s 2-3x rates)….

Most kids the bill is btw $7500-10k. Some closer to $25k for a lot of handholding. If you change majors, entire common app will be redone.

It’s been a good year for my kids !!!! So proud of the outcomes.[/quote]

Congrats. You are skillful at scamming rich,anxious parents out of a lot of money. [/quote]

And I guess I don’t get it. Why pay $7500-$25K for something you (or more specifically, your child) can/should do on your own?

I have one off at college. The admissions process, while lengthy and burdensome, wasn’t actually that difficult to navigate. And when my kid had a question, she simply looked the answer up. [/quote]

Same reason I don't tutor my kids. same reason I dont do my own taxes. same reason I didn't even do my own CSS profile!

I make very good money doing else, better.[/quote]
