Class of 2024 Acceptance Review! (Full Breakdown)
There are many factors that set us apart from other college consulting companies...but the one thing that convinced my parents (for a third time) was the promise displayed in huge letters on the front page of the collegeconsulting.us website:
In what appears to many as an unpredictable and impossible-to-navigate college admissions landscape, this sort of promise seems insane.
But guess what?! We have the confidence to stand by this guarantee because year after year we successfully help students gain acceptance into AT LEAST one of their top-choice schools.
Still not convinced that what we do works. Well, let's break it down by this year's numbers for the Class of 2024.
Average Acceptance Rate: 68.2%
Total College Acceptances: 84
Total College Waitlists: 24
% of Students Accepted and/or Waitlisted at >1 Reach School: 67%
Thomas, one of our incredible students, was waitlisted and accepted to MULTIPLE of his reach schools this year! He will be attending Vanderbilt this fall. Listen more about Thomas's journey here:
1 Student Accepted into 100% OF THEIR SCHOOLS!!!!!
Gracie, who was accepted into 8/8 of her schools, will be attending Clemson this fall! Read more about Gracie's story here.
College acceptances with under 10% acceptance rates:
University of Pennsylvania - 5.38% (find out more about Ryan's incredible success here)
Johns Hopkins - 6.2%
UNC (out of state) - about 8%
University of Southern California - 9.2%
Vanderbilt University - 3.7%
Georgia Tech (Engineering-specific) - <7% acceptance rate
And while, yes, we help shape and guide our students' journeys, they are the one who put in the time and effort to make our promise a reality. So, a BIG congratulations to our incredible Class of 2024. We cannot wait to see all the incredible things you will achieve!
We hope these stats inspire you to set up a one-on-one call to help your child achieve amazing success just like our Class of 2024!
Best,
Melina Kazanas
P.S. - Have a high-performing high schooler w/ a 3.7 GPA or higher? We'll help get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges...and if we don't get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges, you don't pay us a penny. Seriously. College admissions isn't rocket science...but it is a science. And we've cracked the code...year, after year, after year. You can learn more about our world renowned all-inclusive, start-to-finish college coaching here and to see if your family qualifies for an introductory call.
P.P.S - Our most common question is "When should we start?!" The answer is, if you truly care about giving your high schooler the best chance of college planning success, you should start NOW. 9th grade is not too early to start! 10th grade is certainly not too early to start! And 11th grade is far, far too late! (supporting data here to show just how much of an advantage you give your child by starting the process early).
