Elite Educational Consulting – Code of Ethics

At Elite Educational Consulting, we are committed to excellence, integrity, and service. Our mission is to empower students and families through ethical, transparent, and student-centered guidance. The following principles guide all of our work.

1. Integrity & Honesty

We provide guidance that is honest, realistic, and grounded in best practices. We do not misrepresent outcomes, affiliations, or guarantees, and we communicate clearly about what our services can and cannot provide.

2. Student-First Approach

Every recommendation is made with the student’s best interests in mind—academically, ethically, and personally. We respect each student’s unique strengths, goals, background, and values.

3. Ethical Academic Conduct

We do not:

  • Write essays, applications, or assignments on behalf of students

  • Fabricate or falsify information

  • Encourage plagiarism, dishonesty, or academic misconduct

We do:

  • Provide coaching, feedback, strategy, and editing guidance

  • Teach students how to articulate their own experiences authentically

4. Confidentiality & Privacy

All personal, academic, and family information shared with us is treated as confidential. Information is never shared with third parties without explicit consent, except where required by law.

5. Fairness & Non-Discrimination

We serve students without discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, socioeconomic status, disability, or background. Respect and dignity are foundational to our work.

6. Professional Competence

We commit to continuous learning and improvement to ensure our advice reflects current educational systems, application standards, and best practices.

7. Transparency in Services & Pricing

Our services, packages, pricing, and payment plans are clearly communicated. We do not engage in hidden fees, deceptive practices, or pressure-based sales tactics.

8. Ethical Relationships & Boundaries

We maintain professional boundaries with students and families at all times and do not exploit relationships for personal or financial gain.
