Recently ranked the top college admissions consulting firm in the United States by Entrepreneur Magazine, Solomon Admissions Consulting boasts the deepest bench in the United States of over 40 former top-tier college admissions officers who work as college admissions consultants with students in Palo Alto and Atherton.

When hiring a private college admissions counselor in
Palo Alto and Atherton, 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 Palo Alto and Atherton 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.
