College Admission & Application Guidance

College Admission & Application Guidance

Every year college and university admissions get more competitive. One of the major forces behind this phenomenon is the ever-increasing number of applications combined with the tendency of many schools to place a lid on the number of admissions. It’s a troubling development that speaks to the need for expert college admission & application guidance like that provided by Cohort.

Just as important as getting into college is getting into the right college or university. Elite schools enjoy brand recognition but they are not the right choice for everyone. It may well be that a less high-visibility school offers a highly regarded program that can better enable your son or daughter to realize their long-term hopes and aspirations. Cohort application mentors provide the type of actionable guidance that can steer your child toward the program best suited to their interests.

If you are uncertain whether your child would benefit from working with a Cohort applications guide, ask yourself these questions:

  • Are there gaps in their academic record that need to be addressed?

  • Are they keen to apply to a college or university with a historically low acceptance rate?

  • Are they uncertain about which college or university would best enable their long-term plans?

  • Do they feel overwhelmed by the college application process?

If your answer to some or all of these questions is “yes,” the best thing you can do is to get in touch with Cohort and ask about our college admission and application guidance service.
