Commission Based High School Recruiters for Universities?

If it helps any-and it probably doesn’t-it’s unlikely that he’s getting paid. It’s just both his worldview and his knowledge of colleges are pretty limited. Which isn’t that unusual; way back when, the college counselor at my high school had 12(yep, an even dozen) colleges he recommended, no matter what your planned major was.

It would not be surprising if most counselors at most public schools (not specifically college counselors, since many/most schools do not have such) were mainly familiar with the local community college(s), the local state university, and the state flagship, and perhaps a few of the most popular other colleges.
