What is an independent college counselor?

 An independent college counselor is a trained professional who helps students and families manage the college admissions process.

How much does hiring a college counselor cost?

ForWord Consulting LLC tailors its packages to suit each individual client.   Note that a majority of our students earn more in scholarships and financial aid than the cost of our services. Win-win!
