Maximizing Counselors' Impact
• ASCA recommends a 250-to-1 ratio of students to
school counselors; the national average was
376-to-1 for the 2023–2024 school year
• When counselors have more time for direct
student interaction, there are improvements in
student outcomes such as higher attendance
rates, better academic performance, and
increased college enrollment
• Students who met with their school counselor
in high school were much more likely to apply
for and receive financial aid, especially for
students whose parents did not attend college
