As Seen in the Wall Street Journal
Do college advisors really make a difference—and are they worth it?
Featured on the front page of The Wall Street Journal, Crimson Education helps students boost their chances of getting into Ivy League and Top 10 schools by 6.75x. We analyzed thousands of applications to uncover the real impact of expert advising—and whether it’s worth the investment.
“At Harvard, 23% of freshmen in 2023 reported using a private admissions advisor. For students from families earning over $500,000, that number jumps to 48%.”
