Source: Should you look for someone to help your freshman or sophomore with the college admissions process? If so, whom might that be, what might that person bring to the table, when should you start, how much should it cost, what should you expect, and what role should your child play (if any) in this decision?
Questions to consider:
Has your child ever been coached in a sport?
Has your child ever had an instructor for a musical instrument?
Has your child ever had a tutor to help with school work?
Have you ever hired a plumber?
Have you ever used an accountant?
Have you ever engaged a lawyer?
Options (assuming you agree that early engagement is important):
Put your child in charge of their own preparation
You take control of your child’s preparation
Pay an advisor for a 1-time assessment
