Personalized College Admissions Consulting — Hourly, Flexible, and Fair

At Acceptance Letter Consulting, we believe the college application journey should be personalized, approachable, and affordable. Instead of fixed packages that might not fit every student’s unique needs, we offer flexible hourly consulting designed to provide exactly the support your student requires.

Why Hourly Consulting?

Every student’s college application journey is unique. Some students may only need help brainstorming essay ideas. Others might want in-depth essay reviews, while some families just want a few sessions to build a college list or polish their applications. We respect your time and budget by offering flexible, hourly consulting—you pay only for the support you actually need.

Our Hourly Rates

  • $250/hour for the first 4 hours

  • $200/hour for hours 5 and beyond

What Can You Use Your Hours For?

Your consulting hours can be spent however your student and family find most helpful, including:

  • College List Building: Researching and identifying schools that match your student’s goals, interests, and fit

  • Essay Brainstorming & Review: Generating ideas, outlining, and providing detailed feedback on personal statements and supplemental essays

  • Application Q&A: Answering questions about deadlines, components, and strategies for completing applications efficiently

  • Supplemental Materials: Guidance on resumes, activities sections, and other supporting documents

  • Interview Preparation: Coaching and mock interviews to build confidence

  • Parent & Student Sessions: We work with students individually or together with parents—whichever best supports your student’s success

How It Works

  1. Initial Consultation: The initial consultation is complimentary and typically lasts 20–30 minutes, during which we’ll discuss your student’s specific goals and needs.

  2. Flexible Scheduling: Sessions are scheduled at your convenience—whether short focused check-ins or longer deep-dive meetings.

  3. Personalized Focus: You decide how to spend your hours. Need essay help one week and college research the next? No problem.
