Our Mission

Applying to college can be a daunting task. There’s so much to think about: test scores, extracurriculars, essays, and more. And with the competition for top schools so fierce, it’s no wonder that many families turn to admissions consultants for help.

But the college admissions consulting industry is notoriously opaque. It’s hard to know which consultants are qualified and which ones are just out to make a buck. That’s where AdmissionsRank comes in.

We’re a team of passionate parents and former students who are on a mission to bring transparency to the industry. We rank and review admissions services to help you make an informed decision about who to hire.

Why AdmissionsRank?

We’re transparent. We publish our rankings criteria publicly, and we use data that is publicly available.
We don’t do paid reviews. We don’t accept money for reviews, so we always give you our real positions.
We’re up-to-date. We update our rankings and reviews each year to be as accurate as possible.
We’ve been in your shoes! We are parents and former students who understand the pain of finding a trusted service!
