Charleston SC College Admissions Consulting

New data released by the American School Counselor Association shows that student-to-counselor ratios in South Carolina are alarmingly high, approaching 350-to-1 at many high schools in the Charleston area specifically. Charleston, South Carolina’s school-based counselors are qualified, well-intentioned, and do much to bolster the personal and academic growth of their students; however, due to large and ever-increasing caseloads, as well as multiple job roles, many Charleston area school counselors are unable to allocate sufficient time and attention to the college search, admission, and financial aid process. Consequently, a number of Charleston, SC families fail to secure the support needed to engage in a number of activities necessary to earn admission at competitive colleges and universities. Such activities include, but are not limited to, course planning, extracurricular planning, building a list of target colleges, navigating college entrance requirements, completing college applications, crafting college essays, and obtaining need-based and merit-based financial aid. This leads many Charleston, SC families to seek out college admissions consulting.
