Joan Luber Jacobs carefully guides students through the application process. As a former high school counselor and school psychologist, she observed students fall through the cracks without someone pushing them in the right direction. Ms. Jacobs advises students that getting into the "best college" is less important than choosing the college that is the right fit.
The ideal time to start working with a college counselor is in ninth grade to give the student
opportunities to choose competitive academic course loads and extracurricular activities. However,
many choose to hire an independent college counselor during their junior and senior years in high school.
