We offer two types of strategic 1:1 support—designed to meet families where they are and guide them through today’s complex, competitive admissions landscape. Here’s how they compare:
| Comprehensive Consulting Package | Senior Support Package (SSP) | |
|---|---|---|
| Best For | Families seeking a hands-on, start-to-finish strategic partnership—often beginning as early as freshman year. This package is built for planners who want an edge and prefer to outsource to trusted experts. | Families of incoming seniors who are stepping into the process a bit later—due to budget, timing, or belief that admissions starts after junior year. |
| Availability | Available as early as freshman year; often books 2–3 years in advance. | Opens June 1 before senior year; limited capacity. |
| Delivery Format | Bespoke 1:1 guidance throughout high school—up to Decision Day | Flexible, expert 1:1 support scheduled as needed |
| Consultant Access | Ongoing access to dedicated consultant(s) and support from the full iCC team | Direct access to a dedicated consultant during booked sessions |
| Key Features | Comprehensive support: curriculum planning, major selection, college search, essay coaching, timelines, full application management, and much more | Personalized essay reviews, application feedback, school list refinement, test score reporting strategy, and all other aspects of the application process |
| Fee | Comprehensive advising fee + per-school fees assessed upon completion of college list (depending on college-specific requirements) —designed for upfront transparency and customization | Hourly, pay-as-you-go |
| Student Initiative | Guided — A structured, collaborative process that walks students through every step | Flexible — Support tailored to student goals, requests, and pace |
