Cynthia is a professional Educational Consultant who assists students in their college admissions process. With her expertise meeting admissions officers and conversing with current college students, Cynthia is proficient in aiding students to compile a list of schools that are the "best fit" for them.

How is an Independent Educational Consultant different than my student’s college counselor? Does Cynthia work with my student’s school counselor?

Cynthia, a former counselor in both public and private school settings, recognizes the importance of school counselors in a student's college admissions process. Due to their extensive caseloads and other duties, many counselors are unable to provide personalized attention to students and families. Cynthia, on the other, works with a limited number of students each year, allowing her to provide tailored college advice and work closely with families without being constrained by a school schedule.

When is the best time to begin working with an Independent Educational Consultant, and how do I get started?

Exciting news! The college planning process is unique to each student, meaning the best time to start is different for everyone. Most students begin their college counseling journey during their sophomore or junior years, allowing them ample time to explore their options and discover what they truly want in college experience before finalizing their college. list.
