Give the Gift that Gives So Much Back: A College Advisor

ByCheree Liebowitz

The holiday season is in full swing, and with it, the quest for the perfect gift. Rather than spend time in a crowded shopping mall or scouring the options from countless online retailers, give a gift that will make a real difference in the life of someone you love. A college advisor can give students the personalized attention they need to get into the college of their dreams, said Mandee Heller Adler, founder and CEO of International College Counselors.

Give the gift of a college advisor – a gift that will last a lifetime and enable your student to buy all the ipads and video games on their own wish lists.

An expert and experienced college advisor from International College Counselors will:

1. Provide your child with a guided plan for success.

2. Help your child define and understand his or her unique potential.

3. Keep your student organized.

4. Free up more of your student’s time so he or she can focus on school and other priorities.

5. Inform you and your child about changes in higher education and college admissions.

6. Thoroughly review your child’s application and polish it to a high sheen.

7. Be the “bad-guy”. (As we all know, teens don’t necessarily like to listen to their parents!)

8. Guide your student to make wiser personal decisions during these important years.

9. Find the right college match for your child.

10. Connect your child with any help – like tutors – that is needed as he/she works towards the goal.

“Few gifts make as significant an impact as the gift of encouragement and education,” said Adler. “A family can let their student know what is truly important.”

The earlier students start working with the expert college counselors at International College Counselors, the more advantage they gain.
