When hiring a private college admissions counselor in
Chicago, it’s critical to work with a former top-tier college
admissions officer as they are the only ones who have
reviewed thousands of college applications, voted on
who gets admitted and know the preferences of each top school inside and out. A local solo college admissions counselor simply will not know what our team of former college admissions officers know and will not be able to provide the same insider strategy, success rates and level of guidance. Solomon Admissions Consulting employs a team-based approach and pools the knowledge of all its college admissions consultants to assist students in Chicago by employing as college admissions consultants former college admissions officers from Stanford, Princeton, UC Berkeley, MIT, Columbia, Brown, UPenn, Dartmouth, Duke, Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, UChicago and Northwestern.
Solomon Admissions Consulting begins college admissions consulting and coaching starting in the 8th grade with students in Chicago, and works with 8th graders, 9th graders (freshmen), 10th graders (sophomores), 11th graders (juniors) and 12th graders (seniors). Our college admissions consultants work with students first and foremost to develop a compelling strategic positioning plan that positions students for success in the elite college admissions process. Once the ideal positioning strategy is selected, we coach students on the right extra-curricular activities and summer plans to maximize their college admission odds. We specialize in selecting the best choice college for our students, whether they plan to pursue premed, combined BS/MD programs, computer science, engineering, business, finance, prelaw or music and art.
