Long Island College Admissions Consulting

New findings released by the National Association for College Admission Counseling reveals that student-to-counselor ratios in Long Island are exceedingly high, more than 400-to-1 at many high schools throughout the state. Long Island’s school counselors are competent, adequately-trained, and support the academic and personal well-being of the state’s students; however, due to manifold job roles and growing caseloads, most counselors can no longer devote the time and attention needed to effectively guide students through the college search, admissions, and financial aid process. As a result, many Long Island students are left without the help needed to successfully navigate the college admissions process and ultimately enroll at suitable college and universities. These tasks include creating a list of prospective colleges, planning high school coursework and extracurricular participation, applying to internships and summer programs, understanding college application requirements, completing college application forms, writing college essays, and securing financial aid and college scholarships. This is why many Long Island families seek out private college consulting.

College Transitions aims to address the current college admission-related needs of Long Island families, primarily by offering comprehensive college planning and admissions consulting services to students and families living in Stony Brook, Port Jefferson, Dix Hills, Greenlawn, Commack, Melville, Cold Spring Harbor and other Suffolk County locations.
