The team at Great College Advice is extremely proud of our recent high school graduates. They took charge of their college admissions journey, identifying the colleges that were the best fit for them and then crafted compelling essays and applications that made them stand out to admissions officers. We are proud to have helped play a role in our students’ success.
How Our College Consulting Approach is Unique
Our mission at Great College Advice is to provide students and families the highest standard of assistance in the college admissions process. We carefully customize each student’s program to match the student’s needs, abilities, and aspirations. We provide the tools and guidance for students to make their own decisions about what is important to them as they navigate the college admissions process. Our counselors then help students discover the school that is the best fit for them. We guide students as they complete their applications, write their essays, and present themselves in the best light throughout the admissions process.
How We Define Success in the College Admissions Process
At Great College Advice we define college admissions success in a variety of ways. But the most important measure of our success is the happiness and satisfaction of our students and families. Results are important, however, and we are pleased that over the past three years, 97% of our students have been accepted to one of their top three college choices. We are also proud that our students aiming for the most selective colleges and universities win acceptance. Our Ivy League success rates are 3 to 10 times greater with our help than the general acceptance rates.

However, our real goal is to deliver a transformative college planning process with long term effects. We are never more gratified than when our students and families share with us how much they have learned through the process—about higher education, about the world, and about themselves. It’s not just about college admissions success. It’s preparation for life-long success.
Best of luck to our students as they make their way to campus next month – congratulations on everything you’ve accomplished! We know you will succeed in the next chapter of your educational journey.
