An admissions consultant's work often begins with assessing clients' strengths and weaknesses and discussing possible schools to consider. One challenge in this work arises when clients' aspirations outshine their qualifications. Other times, admissions consultants help clients realize how much potential they have. Being able to identify good writing -- and suggest improvements -- is critical for admissions consultants, as is attention to detail. Tact and interpersonal skills are also essential for admissions consultants. Although admissions consultants may meet with their clients in person, face-to-face interaction is not necessarily required. Their work can be done through e-mail and over the phone, so their clients can be located almost anywhere. Admissions consultants work with pros...
Our elder child will be a junior in high school next fall, supposing there are no glaring surprises on this term's report card. It's a point in time when students and parents need to get serious about what college their child might attend. Getting into selective colleges and universities is more competitive than ever. Wealthy people hire consultants to advise parents and teens through the admissions process. The rest of us rely on high school guidance counselors, books, Web sites, the advice of friends or relatives with older children and our own experiences. Newsweek now ranks the nation's top high schools. One of the metrics of the magazine's rating system is whether a school has an International Baccalaureate Diploma Program. Many colleges and universities give additional considerati...
High school students and their parents may hear the inside scoop on what colleges are looking for in today's applicants, and how admissions decisions are made during two free seminars by independent consultant Janet Rosier of Woodbridge.

The purpose of this qualitative study is to analyze how advertising affects search and college choice among the plethora of college choice influencers.

Right on with Todd Benoit's weekend column, "One test produces another for the state." Education Commissioner Sue Gendron's scheme was way out there. There is no support from the plan from anyone in the high school or college business. As a longtime member of the Maine Counseling Association (MeCA), I have never heard us take any political stand against anything but we sure did, loud and clear, with this one on the SAT-MEA replacement. All the high school guidance counselors, college admissions officers and educational consultants belong and we are the people who administer, use and evaluate the SAT for college admissions. The commissioner's plan is not only totally inappropriate but as Benoit pointed out, it fails to meet No Child Left Behind and the state's Learning Results.

It's an annual rite of passage. This spring millions of high- school seniors across America are receiving admissions decisions from colleges and universities. Today, we accept it as a high-stress ritual in which colleges spend multiple millions marketing themselves, and families spend hundreds of millions of dollars on test-prep tutors and private college consultants. It's during this time that I pine away for the good old days of college admissions.
