National Association for College Admission Counseling – State of College Admission 2023 Data Release – School Counseling: Caseloads and Responsibilities indicate the following:
During the 2021-22 academic year, each public-school counselor was responsible for overseeing 405 students, on average, which exceeds the 250-to-1 maximum ratio recommended by the American School Counselor Association.
School counselors at public schools spend 26% (at private schools: 51%) of their time on post-secondary (college admissions) counseling.
The Hechinger Report states that “many public high schools are scrambling to provide students with even basic information about college after years of belt tightening have drained them of counselors. As a result, “support is scant” for most students: “Counselors are overwhelmed, and college guidance often doesn’t begin until late in junior year.”
Inflated caseloads often translate to limited time to dedicate to each student, leading to reduced individual attention. With more students to handle, school counselors spend less time understanding their unique needs, offering individualized guidance, and developing tailored plans for academic and personal growth. In many cases, overworked and overwhelmed high school counselors simply have too many students to give individual attention needed in the competitive admissions environment.
While high school counselors provide college counseling, they often do not have the time to cater to the development or implementation of each student’s individual college plan and are usually not available on-call on the weekend and after school hours.
Dr. Lowe and his team complement school counselors’ efforts by working one-on-one with your child, customizing a winning admissions plan which will help your child get into their top choice colleges. Dr. Lowe is available not only during school hours, but after school, evenings and weekends via phone, email and remote consultations. By having one-on-one sessions, Dr. Lowe helps each individual client present their backgrounds and aspirations in the best positive light to admissions committees. The result – Acceptances!
In developing a winning college admissions plan, Dr. Lowe works with students and their parents carefully planning their courses and extracurricular activities (community service, employment, summer programs, internships, etc.), planning college visits, selecting the right teachers for the best letters of recommendations, developing a WOW factor, assisting with creating, brainstorming and advising personal statements and supplemental essays revisions; developing college social media profile and brand. Additionally, Dr. Lowe provides personalized, individualized attention and helps clients keep organized, stay motivated and meet deadlines throughout the application process.
Over the past 29 years, Dr. Lowe has complemented the college admissions tasks of school counselors and, at times, worked cooperatively and collaboratively with them to help his clients gain admissions into Ivy League and highly selective colleges and universities and direct BS/MD programs!
It’s a WIN-WIN for students (his clients – international and U.S.) and their school counselors!

Year after year, I hear horror stories from parents whose children were accepted into their SAFETY schools because they thought the college admissions race was just about grades, SAT scores, their perceived “unique” applications, generic essays and “perfect” connections. Their children are either outright rejected or deferred in the regular decision pool and then rejected.
I have even had four clients, this year, who assumed that they knew more than me, an admissions advisor with 29 years of experience, not follow my recommendations and advice to their essays and applications……only to be outright rejected from their top-choice schools.
Dr. Lowe specializes in helping students get into their top choice schools through our SECOND CHANCE programs – Off Deferral List and Reapplication-Transfer. Dr. Paul develops winning admissions strategies to help students off the deferral list to be accepted in the regular decision pool. He also successfully helps students who were rejected from the Ivies to transfer to the Ivies from their safety schools. We a have a 95% Acceptance rate with these programs, because by reviewing student applications and profiles and their mistakes, we know what went wrong!
If your child is among the students who were deferred and/or rejected you should consider the SECOND CHANCE Admissions programs.
Everyone deserves a SECOND CHANCE. This time hire and follow the winning admissions advice of an expert!
