Students are marketing themselves as experts, charging for consulting services.

July 1, 2023, 7:33 AMStudents walk through a gate at Harvard University, June 29, 2023, in Cambridge, Mass. The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down affirmative action in college admissions, declaring race cannot be a factor and forcing institutions of higher education to look for new ways to achieve diverse student bodies.Kelsey Hoskin charges students $675 for an hour-long, private college admissions strategy Zoom session. And students are paying.

Hoskin frequently posts screenshots of her acceptance letters from elite universities on TikTok. However, she doesn't believe that any student attending these universities should necessarily be selling consulting services. "I think I have more credibility possibly than an admissions officer," Hoskin said. "A past admissions officer from Brown [University] can tell you what Brown's looking for. But I figured out what Harvard, Cornell [University], Dartmouth [College], all these schools I applied to, were looking for."

Liu, who was a part of the USA Astronomy and Astrophysics Team in high school, credits his eventual acceptance largely to his academic performance and extracurriculars, not his essays.
