Economic uncertainty will understandably have non-essential services competing for dollars. CPC is well-poised to throw our hat in that ring.
Recently, about 670 IECs (Independent Educational Consultants) participated in this pricing survey. Below are the takeaways:
Pricing - Does more expensive mean better service? What makes our $2,760 all-inclusive package affordable, and how do we do it?
Our approach is to leverage technology and partners so that we can offer a product that families can afford without sacrificing services - see our 130+ 5-star reviews. Working with more students rather than a select group of families with higher finances means more experience and better guidance for all families.
National vs Regional experience - How does our work in many regions benefit your student?
Only 21% of IECs work with students nationwide. Our national representation lifts all boats as we are not focused on one region or a smaller subset of schools. We have worked with students from over 15 states and 100 high schools. More applications and more schools give us more experience than the average IEC.

Experience Matters
Only 37% of IECs have been in business for over 10 years. Our practice has been helping students for 20 + years. Our student portal houses thousands of data points each application cycle to help future students.

Why don't we believe in hourly pricing or different packages?
Over 65% of the IECs surveyed work with hourly pricing or more than one package option, which means you are on the clock for all questions and support if your student's needs exceed the program. Because our pricing model is competitive, we can fully serve all students. It would be difficult to tell a student they've run out of hours! Why We Don’t Offer A La Carte Services
