What services do you provide?
We guide students bound for college and graduate school with the college application process. We also work with students seeking to transfer from one college to another.
What differentiates Alocin Admissions from other educational consultants?
We have significant experience guiding students through the financial aid process. We will help you complete all your financial aid forms and help you identify all the aid you can receive to make college more affordable.
When is the best time to begin working with a college-bound student?
While many families come to us when their children are in 11th or 12th grades, it is helpful to begin our relationship with the student as early as the 8th or 9th grade so that we can develop a four year high school plan encompassing curriculum, standardized testing, and extracurricular activities that will maximize their potential. The high school curriculum is one of the most important factors in college admissions.
I have a college counselor at my high school; can I benefit from working with an independent consultant?
Yes.
Some families come to us because their children attend schools where the student/counselor ratio is extremely high, and they seek more personalized guidance. We work with a limited roster of students and is not burdened with additional responsibilities.
Others may choose to work with us because they want an additional and impartial perspective that will benefit their child. And some families in locations outside the US work with us because their school has little or no prior experience with admissions to US colleges.
In no way can any independent educational consultant replace the school counselor; in fact, we encourage our students to work closely with their school counselors and we teach them how to fully utilize their school’s guidance resources.
