About Us:

At Vanguard College Prep, we guide ambitious high school students toward achieving their college and career goals. We specialize in personalized admissions counseling, standardized test preparation, and long-term academic mentoring for families who expect the highest standard of service. Our mission is to empower students to reach their full potential by helping them navigate the increasingly competitive U.S. and international admissions landscape.

The Role:

We are seeking College Admissions Counselors who are passionate about education and mentorship. In this role, you will provide individualized guidance to students and families throughout the admissions process — from building strategic college lists, to crafting standout applications, to advising on extracurricular and academic development. You will serve as a trusted advisor, helping students gain admission into top universities.

As a College Counselor, you will be expected to:

  • Guide students in creating strong, balanced college lists tailored to their interests, strengths, and goals.
  • Advise on academic planning, extracurricular pursuits, and summer opportunities to strengthen student profiles.
  • Provide strategic support in application planning, including timelines, essays, and supplemental materials.
  • Conduct mock interviews and prepare students for admissions conversations.
  • Stay up to date on admissions trends, university requirements, and best practices.
  • Collaborate with other internal team members to ensure student success.

Requirements:

  • A bachelor's degree or higher from a Top U.S. university (English, Language Arts, Journalism, Creative Writing, Publishing, Anthropology, Public Policy, etc.).
  • Prior experience in college admissions counseling, university admissions offices, or selective high school college counseling.
  • Strong understanding of the U.S. college admissions process and familiarity with international admissions is a plus.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to build rapport with students and families from diverse backgrounds.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple student timelines and deadlines at once.
  • Fixed Flex Schedule with Core Hours

The ideal candidate will also possess some or all of the following:

  • Master's degree
  • Experience tutoring high school and/or college-aged students in writing
  • Editing experience, especially in positions that require heavy editing to meet organizational standards
  • Experience in the college preparation service industry
  • Experience instructing remotely, using tools such as Google Hangout, Google Drive, and Google Classroom
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to multitask, balance multiple deadlines, and take responsibility for students' progress

Why you want to be a College Counselor with Vanguard College Prep:

  • Impact: Play a meaningful role in shaping the futures of talented students.
  • Flexibility: Remote work with flexible scheduling.
  • Growth: Professional development opportunities and access to admissions insights from a network of experts.
  • Distinctive and individualized approach to creative writing and expression with a strong track record of producing top-tier writers
  • Elite team of instructors, counselors, and specialists from Ivy League and top universities across the nation who are passionate about fostering student success
  • Quickly-growing start-up environment that emphasizes creativity, collaboration, and mentorship

Compensation:

  • Starting Pay: $23.00 – $26.00 per hour depending on education, experience, and skill
    • Health, dental, vision
    • PTO + paid holidays
    • Remote flexibility
    • Professional development opportunities
