Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our counseling services and approach.

Q:How are CLYRA counselors different from school counselors?

While school counselors are valuable resources, they typically manage hundreds of students and focus on immediate school needs. CLYRA counselors work with a limited number of students, providing personalized, long-term guidance enhanced by our AI tools and specialized expertise in college and graduate admissions.

Q:When should we start working with a CLYRA counselor?

For high school students counseling, we recommend starting in 9th or 10th grade to build a strong foundation, though we can provide valuable support at any stage. For postgraduate school counseling, ideally begin 12-18 months before application deadlines to allow time for profile enhancement and thorough preparation.

Q:How do you match students with counselors?

We consider the student's academic interests, career goals, personality, and specific needs when matching with a counselor. Our AI assessment tools help identify the optimal counselor match, and we encourage an initial consultation to ensure a good fit before committing to a package.

Q:What is the role of AI in your counseling services?

Our AI tools enhance the counseling experience by providing data-driven insights, analyzing patterns from thousands of successful applications, and automating routine tasks. This allows our human counselors to focus on the personal aspects of guidance strategy development, emotional support, and nuanced feedback that only humans can provide.

Q:Do you guarantee admission to specific schools?

No ethical counseling service can guarantee admissions, and we prioritize integrity in our approach. What we do guarantee is a significant improvement in your application quality, strategic guidance based on data and experience, and support throughout the entire process to maximize your chances at your target schools.

Q:Can we use just the counseling services without the AI tools?

While our counseling services can be used independently, we find that students achieve the best results when combining human guidance with our AI tools. The tools provide valuable data and efficiency that enhance the counselor's ability to provide personalized guidance. All counseling packages include access to relevant AI tools.
