Comprehensive International Student Plan

International College Counselors is the leader in helping international students get into U.S. universities. With International College Counselors help, hundreds of students from over 30 countries have successfully gained admission into the top U.S. colleges and universities.  Mandee Heller Adler, founder and partner of International College Counselors, wrote the book on international admissions – International Admissions: How to get accepted into U.S. colleges. Advising may be done in English or Spanish, depending on the family’s preference. In addition to the Comprehensive College Plan or Graduate Plan listed below, International student applicants will also receive assistance with the following:

Comprehensive College Plan

Each International College Counselors service begins with a comprehensive discussion with the parent(s) and child, a review of applicable academic and test records, and completion of the Student/Family Profile. With this, the consultant will better understand your child’s and your family’s values, priorities, and preferences, as well as your child’s strengths, needs, and learning style.
