College admissions consulting

Service Description

A small number of Another Degree mentors offer focused advising service for students and families navigating the college search and admissions process. This support is designed for high school students and parents, community college students preparing to transfer, and non‑traditional learners returning to complete or begin a degree. Your mentor will help you make sense of the wide range of colleges and universities - public vs. private, religious vs. secular, small liberal arts schools vs. large research institutions - and which schools and programs can help you achieve your goals. You’ll get clear guidance on academic offerings, campus culture, costs, financial aid, and scholarships, and how to identify environments where you can thrive. Alongside application support, mentors also help students understand how to make the most of college once they arrive: using campus resources, building relationships with faculty, finding community, and shaping an experience that aligns with their goals. This service is available through select mentors with specialized experience in college admissions and undergraduate education - including faculty and administrators with up-to-date insider insights.
