How virtual admissions counseling delivers results

Here at AcceptU, we use the word “virtual” to describe the way in which we connect our team of counselors to a global network of clients. For us, it’s a familiar platform on which we operate; however, for many families, adjusting to virtual counseling comes with questions.

Let’s take a moment to understand why AcceptU works virtually and how this method of counseling produces results for hundreds of clients each year.

Why virtual?

1. Counselor selection

Matching a counselor with each student is an essential first step. We consider a variety of factors before coming to a decision – age, programs of interest and school lists being among them. With our team of former college admissions officers based in cities across the U.S., virtual counseling is necessary for students to be connected to the best fit counselor, regardless of location.

2. Convenience

Kids today are busier than ever – and parents are even busier. With that in mind, families are constantly looking toward the convenience factor associated with any investment. Virtual counseling allows for our services to be provided on your schedule  morning, noon or night.

3. Instant feedback

When it comes to fall application deadlines, time is of the essence. Virtual counseling allows for same day feedback from counselors and helps ensure that last minute details are not forgotten. Come November, you and your child will be happy to know that help is just a phone call away!

4. Parent involvement

Virtual counseling allows parents the flexibility to decide how much (or how little) they would like to be involved in the counseling services. Our team has experience in dealing with varying levels of parent involvement and can be a welcome relief during the busiest times of year.
