How much does it cost to hire a U.S. admissions consultant?

No flat fees here, because no two families are alike. Some Dubai parents want quick fixes, like a couple of hours for an essay polish or a crash course in interview prep. Others go all-in with multi-year plans that cover everything from eighth-grade class choices to senior-year college essays. The price? It depends on how deep you want to go. Factors like your consultant’s track record, how hands-on they are, and whether you’re aiming for the Ivy League or elite boarding schools all play a part. At Cardinal Education, we don’t just hand out advice—we roll up our sleeves and dive in with you. Led by Allen Koh, our team delivers the kind of strategic, high-touch support Dubai families trust.
