I love college admission consulting! I enjoy working with teens and young adults and for
some reason I have a rapport with them (perhaps I never grew up and I'm a kid at heart!).
Working with students one on one gives me the greatest satisfaction, and I do believe that
most students can benefit from one on one time with their college counselor, a rare
occurrence in high schools these days. Recent surveys indicate that high school counselors
have as many as 400 students on their rosters, and high school guidance counselors are not
specifically trained in college consulting. They have a tough and busy job. If you have any
questions you would like to ask please go the FAQs page, or contact me at
t.warnerminton@collegeadventures.net. I'd love to hear from you.
