An IECA member educational consultant is a skilled professional who provides counseling to help students and families choose a school, college, or other program that is a good personal match: one that will foster the student’s academic and social growth.
What is an Independent Educational Consultant?
An independent educational consultant provides a student and family with individual attention, firsthand knowledge of hundreds of educational opportunities, and the time to explore all of the options.
How an IECA Member Consultant Can Help Your Family
This video explains how independent educational consultants help families find the right college for their child.
College Admission Advising
IECA member consultants can be a welcome resource for students and families who are looking for knowledgeable professionals with experience in admissions counseling. IECA members provide individual attention, flexible scheduling, and are committed to finding colleges that are the right fit for the student.
Day & Boarding School Advising
Placing your child in an independent school can be an important decision, one which most often leads to an enriching experience. An IECA consultant can help facilitate the process of selecting the school in which your child can be happy and successful, and guide your family through the oftentimes overwhelming admissions process.
Learning Disability/Neurodiversity Advising
An IECA member educational consultant can help find the school, college, or program that will meet your child’s unique learning profile.
Therapeutic Needs
Our member educational consultants who specialize in helping families with troubled teens have extensive experience working with crisis intervention, dealing with oppositional behaviors, and other emotional/behavioral difficulties, and finding the most suitable solutions.
International Advising
Independent Educational Consultant Association members with international specialties are uniquely qualified to help you and your child learn about a wide range of educational opportunities around the globe and choose one that best meets your needs.
Graduate & Professional School Advising
The decision to attend graduate school is not a simple one. Students must evaluate attendance in terms of their career goals and the cost. The selectivity of graduate programs can be difficult to evaluate because not all of the admission data is readily available.
