Description:

We are looking for individuals who have experience working for undergraduate admissions at highly selective universities and a passion for helping students applying to pre-med or direct medical (“BS/MD”) programs. Working together with a physician advisor, the college advisor will support high school students through all aspects of the college application process. The goal is to help students build applications that are compelling and representative of them. We are only open to candidates who have worked in admissions for a highly selective college or university and/or have privately counseled highly qualified students through the college application process.

It is critical that you maintain up-to-date knowledge of college admissions trends, industry standards, and new developments. Additionally, our students are focused on applying to BS/MD or pre-med programs and expect our advisors to have an understanding of their unique needs as an applicant.
