Are the College Admissions Assistance Letters I Receive A Scam??

I receive these letters every now and then, saying I have an opportunity for an appointment. It seems like a scam, has anyone else fund this to be a scam or could it be beneficial?

Scam. We attended the free presentation and interview. For close to 5000 dollars they offered to “guide” us through the admissions process and negotiate for more aid from our college of choice. I fing this web site to be far more helpful and glad that we didn’t fall for it.

@livinginLA Man! Well, I’m glad you found this forum! It means we can make others aware of these “Assistance” letters.
