If you need more than one or two reviews of your application statement, Dr. Deegan’s Custom Consulting Services may be right for you. Dr. Deegan offers Hourly Consulting Packages, the Personal Statement Super Review Package, the App Half Year Package, and the App Year Package.
All custom consulting packages come with specific, individualized plans that describe in detail what the service entails. Payment plans are available for all custom consulting options and will be arranged in advance with Dr. Deegan.
Hourly Consulting Services – $150 / hour (depending on individual needs)
If you need guidance on the admissions and the application process beyond writing the personal statement, but don’t require the in-depth service in any of the plans outlined below, Dr. Deegan is available to draw on her many years of experience advising students to provide individualized guidance on an hourly basis.
Dr. Deegan is available to review and advise on all aspects of the admissions and application processes, including personal statements, schools list, school choice, academic record review, extracurricular activities narratives, financial aid/scholarships, and application completion. Dr. Deegan conducts this service through consultation via email, phone, online or in-person (as requested, by special arrangement, in the Los Angeles area). As with all of Dr. Deegan’s services, fees, expectations and hourly commitment/deadlines are agreed upon in advance to foster student accountability and success, and to assure Dr. Deegan’s full availability.
Please contact Dr. Deegan directly at drdeegan@collegeappasap.com if you are interested in consulting services by the hour.
Personal Statement Super Review Package – $600:
This service provides everything from topic brainstorming, review and feedback for multiple drafts and multiple application statements, consultation via email, phone or online, and availability for fast turnaround to meet application deadlines. In addition, Dr. Deegan can provide consulting on converting one personal statement into a responsive statement for another school or application (such as cutting down a longer statement to fit the shorter word limits of the Common Application).
The fee for the Personal Statement Super Review Package is $600 and includes pre-work such as topic development and up to three reviews of your draft, typically over a one-month period so students have time to prepare revisions. Faster turnaround time is available for $750 for one week of intensive work and completion, and $1000 for 48 hours of intensive work and completion.
Please contact Dr. Deegan directly at drdeegan@collegeappasap.com if you are interested in the Personal Statement Super Review Package.
App Half Year Package – $3000:
This advisory package provides 4 hours of consulting per month for 6 months (typically from August before senior year through January of senior year when most applications are completed; available prorated depending on which month service begins).
Topics such as schools list, school choice, academic solutions, personal statement, family/financial advising, letters of recommendation and any other issues related to the college or graduate school application process are covered. A customized consulting plan is developed for each client, based on their needs, and agreed to in advance.
