Do college admissions offices work with independent counselors?
Yes, and that relationship is growing rapidly. Because of professional organizations like IECA and HECA, colleges are reaching out to independent counselors and inviting them to campuses. Many have discovered that good college counseling means a good fit for them which increases success at college and results in good retention rates. Independent counselors who are members of NACAC adhere to very strict ethical guidelines as well which make them accountable for what they are promising and providing to students and their families.
