Many college admissions consulting companies deliver services virtually, meaning a company’s physical location doesn’t necessarily have to matter. However, it’s up to your needs and goals to determine whether an in-person or online arrangement works better for you.
Additionally, it may be harder to find local, in-person companies with admissions counselors who’ve attended top schools such as Stanford, Harvard, or MIT, depending on where you live. Choosing a company with an online delivery model and an extensive network of counselors can raise your chances of working with a counselor with a specific background or qualifications.
