*Please Note: The number of hours shown for each package is an estimate only. The actual number of hours will depend on several variables, including the quality of the materials you provide your consultant, the number of required essays in a school’s application package, the number of drafts you need reviewed, and other factors. Therefore, additional hours may be needed to complete your engagement. Fixed-fee school packages are a better alternative for applicants who need extensive support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum number of hours?
Your initial hourly purchase must be for at least three (3) hours. After your initial purchase, you can add additional hours in increments of one (1) hour or more.
What if I need more time?
You and your consultant can discuss the right number of hours to meet your needs beyond your initial hourly package purchase. You can always add funds to your account as needed. You’ll receive a link to an online timesheet so you are always up-to-date on how you’ve spent your time and the dollars remaining.
Do my hours expire?
Your hours must be used within the time limits shown on our Terms & Conditions (opens in a new tab), otherwise, they will expire. Please note that expired hours are not refundable. If you believe you’ll want help over a longer period of time, our Comprehensive School Packages may be more appropriate for your needs.
Would I be better off investing in a fixed-fee school package?
