Our Method

Academic Advisors was started by parents and students who worked through college admissions and realized firsthand how confusing and difficult the entire process is. We realized many things, such as extra-curricular activities and class selection have to be planned at a much earlier stage.
By bringing together high school English teachers and counselors from across the country, we provide valuable insights and support to our student families. Collaborating with college admissions experts and former admissions officers allows us to help our students create the most compelling college application possible.

Academic Advisors was inspired by parents and high school students who experienced the learning curve that is college admissions.

With support from our experienced English teachers, high school counselors, and ex-admissions officers, our students have an unparalleled advantage.

This cohort of experienced team members ensure our students are positioned for success.

Academic Advisors are true to their word – the entire college admissions process was stress-free. They supported me every step of the way and I knew I could call or email my counselor at any time with questions I had.
As a parent, I only have words of praise for Academic Advisors. The team knows what they are doing, are extremely dedicated to the students and always helpful. They are honest in their interactions and I would recommend them to any parent seeking help for their children.

I had seen my sister go through college admissions and knew it was an overwhelming experience. I am glad my parents signed me up with AA, for it was super smooth sailing.
My relationship with my daughter was deteriorating every day as we fought about her taking the SATs, and of course, applying to colleges. When a friend told me about Academic Advisors, I signed her up immediately. That took our fighting out of the equation. I could be just a parent again and allow the Academic Advisors team to help her with the college prep process.

As I started 10th grade, I had no idea what I wanted to study. Academic Advisors’ individualized report based on the Self Discovery Tool and the Psychometric Test helped me understand what my strengths are and from there my counselor worked with me to identify college majors I could consider.
I wish I had known about Academic Advisors when my two older children applied to college. It has been a pretty amazing experience and my son has had the best support possible as he has applied to colleges across the country.

College would not have happened for me without Academic Advisors!! Thanks guys – you are the absolute best!
I knew I wanted to apply to elite colleges. Academic Advisors team had the depth of experience to guide me every step of the way. The brand image they built for me was pretty amazing and I know that is the reason I was accepted to my top choice college.

I cannot believe that I completed high school with enough credits to start college as a junior. I will graduate with a four-year degree but pay tuition for only two years! Thanks to the team at Academic Advisors who helped me figure out Dual Enrollment and College classes to take during my high school.
As twins, we both wanted to attend the same college. The Academic Advisors team helped us pick colleges based on both our abilities and we were accepted together to one of our top choice colleges.

As I watched my classmates lose sleep and stress about their SATs and essays, I relaxed as my counselor had provided me a step by step guide and timelines for everything I needed to do. My counselor connected with me every month, to ensure I was staying on track.
I loved the Summer Workshop. I was able to complete my Common App during my summer break, and my essay ready in a week after that. When I began 12th grade, I felt I was already a step ahead and ready to complete my college applications.
