[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m seeing a lot of private school parents talk about the relationships their schools have with various colleges and that they act as feeders to these colleges. Are the well- ranked public schools in this area - assuming your child graduates with a great GPA- also considered feeders? Or they are just too big and [i]don’t have college counselors focused on creating relationships with admissions teams at colleges[/i][b], so no dice?[/quote]

The counselors hardly have the opportunity to create relationships with the students at the schools! Huge caseloads, and the college and counseling departments don't have the kind of long-term roles that would allow this. Not to mention, institutional constraints that are (appropriately) designed to ensure equitable distribution of finite resources.

If you want to combine public school education with personal relationships with admissions teams, you'll need a private college counselor (and you'll need to pay for that.) [/quote]
