Co-Pilot Agreement and Client Agreement
Co-Pilot Agreement
Our comprehensive packages promise to fulfill all aspects of the college search and application process. By enrolling in a package you are agreeing to adhere to the requirements for each member of our partnership including the Student (Client), Responsible Party/Parties, Parents, Guardians [Stakeholder(s)], and College Flight Path (CFP), who will provide independent, objective, and confidential high school and college admissions preparation services. Our goal is to provide transparency by explicitly outlining each member’s responsibilities in our agreement for college and postsecondary services.
CFP’s Responsibilities Include:
CFP will conduct a detailed assessment of student needs through an in-depth pre-college meeting where all stakeholders are present and we review educational and personal histories, school records, and educational testing results. CFP will then provide a professional summary of the student’s interests, strengths, skills, academic and extracurricular goals.
CFP will set up a follow-up meeting to conduct extensive research to develop a customized school list tailored to student’s interests, abilities, and needs.
Once the initial list has been vetted, we will identify where you should schedule tours and campus visits.
CFP will offer advice on securing letters of recommendation.
CFP will help students practice for college interviews in preparation for their in-person visits.
CFP will assist with applications, including review of student essays, resume, activities, and supplemental essays.
CFP will follow up each meeting with a summary and to-do list for future meetings to keep students on schedule with their application deadlines and process. Additional information will be provided through CounselMore emails and can be found on our blog and events page.
CFP will assist with scholarship search and merit scholarship applications. *Additional fees may apply or hours deducted from a package.
