Consultant/Editor for College Admission Consulting Program

We guide our students to perform insightful research about American colleges and universities, and understand overall application strategies for top institutions. Students also receive expert advice on profile building, school placement, financial aid applications and scholarship opportunities, and financial planning and visa applications.
