About Solomon Admissions Consulting
Solomon Admissions Consulting offers elite services in college admissions counseling. They focus on strategic positioning consulting: a comprehensive analysis of the student, their strengths and weaknesses, and their college list. Solomon Admissions Consulting counselors focus on building the student’s narrative and ensuring that every aspect of the college admissions process (essays, recommendations, activity sheets, interviews) align with the student’s positioning strategy.
According to Solomon Admissions Consulting, a high majority of their students get into one of their top-three choice schools; their student acceptance rates are five times above the national average.
Services
Solomon Admissions Consulting offers a Premium and Standard Package beginning at any high school grade level. The difference between the two packages includes the counselor/student pairings and the time spent on essay reviews. The Premium package includes counseling from a Senior former admissions officer at one of the top 30 schools and unlimited essay review. Standard package includes counseling from a former admissions officer at one of the top 40 to 100 schools and 2 essay reviews. The student works primarily with one coach, although coaches collaborate amongst each other. There is no hourly rate and packages are based on the number of college applications, capping at 10 schools. They recommend applying to safety schools on your own.
In addition to top-tier undergraduate college admissions counseling, Solomon Admissions Consulting provides counseling services for medical school, MBA, and private school (K-12) admissions.
Strengths
All consultants included in the Premium package are published scholars.
Solomon Admissions Consulting focuses on strategic positioning offering comprehensive and thorough guidance on the college admissions process.
Weaknesses
Some clients reported a vast difference between Solomon Admissions Consultings’ Premium and Standard packages, meaning standard package purchasers may be less satisfied with their consulting services.
Solomon Admissions Consulting does not currently offer the ability to purchase individual hourly sessions and has notably low caps on the number of applications they will support per student.
Summary
Solomon Admissions Consulting is a great choice for students and families looking for an intense, comprehensive college admissions guidance program. It is also best suited for students who are interested in applying to elite universities. Solomon Admissions Consulting prides itself on guiding students to attend Ivy League, Tier 1, and Top 20 schools.
However, if you are looking for additional guidance on safety schools or looking for unlimited comprehensive packages at a more affordable rate, Solomon Admissions Consulting does not meet these needs. Solomon Admissions Consulting is for students and families looking to gain admissions into competitive institutions.
