How our admissions counseling works

Whether your student is applying to a competitive college or a private middle or high school, the admissions process involves more moving pieces than most families expect. AJ Tutoring’s admissions counseling services are designed to reduce that complexity. Our counselors assess where your student is, help build a realistic and ambitious school list, guide the essay and application process, and support your family through every deadline.

Two paths, one expert team

AJ Tutoring supports families at two critical admissions milestones. For students applying to colleges and universities, our college counseling team provides comprehensive support through the full application process. For families exploring private middle or high schools, our admissions counseling specialists help students identify the right schools, prepare for entrance exams, and navigate the application with confidence. Not sure which path fits your student? Our directors can help you figure it out in a free consultation.

Frequently asked questions

What admissions counseling services does AJ Tutoring offer?

AJ Tutoring offers two types of admissions counseling: college admissions counseling for students applying to colleges and universities, and private middle and high school admissions counseling for families navigating private K-12 applications. Both services include personalized guidance, school list development, and support through every step of the process.

When should we start working with an admissions counselor?

For college admissions, the primary application work begins in junior year – but we welcome students earlier for course selection and extracurricular planning. For private school admissions, the timeline depends on the schools being considered and their entrance exam requirements. Our directors can help you build the right timeline in a free consultation.

Do you offer admissions counseling for both college and private school applicants?

Yes. AJ Tutoring’s admissions counselors support students at two distinct milestones: applying to private middle or high schools, and applying to colleges and universities. Each program is run by specialists with deep experience in their respective admissions landscape.
