New Jersey (NJ) College Admissions Consultants

New Jersey (NJ) high school students are some of the most competitive applicants to elite colleges in the nation, boasting high test scores, impressive extra-curricular activities and a high level of preparedness to succeed in college. However, according to the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), New Jersey (NJ) has a high student-to-counselor ratio of 370:1, falling well short of the recommended 250:1 high school student-to-counselor ratio.

College Application Consultants

When hiring a private New Jersey (NJ) college admissions consultant, 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.
