Consultant code of conduct

Accepting this code is a condition of being listed as a consultant.

Honest experience

Speak with certainty only about what you have experienced first-hand, and separate a guess from experience.


No guarantees

Never promise admission, a visa or any outcome — neither explicitly nor by implication.


Absolute ban on falsification

Give no help whatsoever in falsifying or “improving” documents, transcripts, recommendation letters or records. A breach means permanent suspension.


Show up on time

Be there at the confirmed time; two no-shows remove you from the consultant list.


Respect and confidentiality

Keep the applicant's personal information confidential and never use it outside the session.


Disclose your interests

If you have a financial interest in a service you recommend, say so.
