Disclaimer

Effective July 1, 2026

The information provided by CollegeCounselor (the "Service") is for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute admissions advice, counseling, or any professional service. By using the Service you acknowledge and agree to the following.

1. Not admissions advice

The Service retrieves public data (the federal College Scorecard, institutions' published Common Data Sets, and publicly posted community outcomes) and uses a third-party AI model to generate structured, reference information. All outputs — including "chance" bands, verdicts, and counselor responses — are automated summaries of public data and cannot replace personalized guidance from a professional college counselor or admissions advisor. No advisory relationship is formed by using the Service.

2. No guarantee of accuracy

Admissions data lags reporting cycles, contains gaps, and varies by source and year. While we strive for accuracy, we make no warranty as to the completeness, accuracy, timeliness, or fitness of any information. AI-generated content may contain errors or omissions. Always verify against official institutional sources before making decisions.

3. No probabilities, only estimates

The Service deliberately expresses chances as coarse bands (reach / target / safety) rather than precise probabilities. Real admissions decisions weigh essays, recommendations, extracurriculars, and institutional priorities that the Service cannot observe.

4. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CollegeCounselor and its operators accept no liability for any decision, action, or omission taken in reliance on the Service, or for any direct or indirect loss arising from its use. Whether and how to rely on the Service is entirely your own judgment and responsibility.

5. Third-party content

Statistics, requirements, and outcomes referenced by the Service come from public sources and remain the property of their respective owners. Community outcomes are shown only in anonymized, aggregate form and reproduce no individual's private content. This material is used for informational and research purposes, and we re-verify it against official sources periodically; any figure may lag a cycle or more, so always confirm on the college's official page.
