About University
Johns Hopkins University was established in the 19th century by a Maryland philanthropist and entrepreneur who envisioned improving public health and education in Baltimore. Daniel Coit Gilman, the university’s first president, believed that sharing knowledge and discoveries could help improve the world, which drove his efforts to create a modern public research university.
Over its 145-year history, Johns Hopkins has remained true to the vision of its founder. For more than a century, the university has been a destination for excellent, ambitious scholars and has been a world leader in teaching and research. Many faculty members and colleagues at the university’s Applied Physics Laboratory have made Johns Hopkins the nation’s leader in federal research and development funding every year since 1979.
Thus, the university has earned its distinction as America’s first research university. This place has revolutionised higher education in the U.S. and continues to bring knowledge and discoveries to the world.

Your guide to finding the personal and professional improvement programs to fit your needs
Counsellors, who provide their services on CounsellingX, are freelancers with an ample amount of admission counselling experience. Most of the counsellors on our platform have as many as 50 or more successful placements. Furthermore, they, themselves, are mostly graduates from the top universities in the world.
Some of the counsellors on CounsellingX have a green tick mark on the top left corner of their profiles. The green tick indicates that all the information mentioned in the counsellor’s profile is authentic and has been verified by CounsellingX’s quality assurance department.
End-to-end admission counselling or any counselling service for that matter can be divided into multiple instalments. For example, if a counsellee is taking end-to-end counselling from a counsellor, the first instalment can be “finalising the list of universities and courses”, the second instalment can be “finalising the SOP”, and so on. These instalments are created by the counsellor after understanding the scope of the project (i.e., once the free 15-minute discussion is done between the counsellor and the counsellee).
These instalments will, then, be emailed to the counsellee by the counsellor. Once official approval is received by both parties, the counsellee will make the payment for the first instalment. The amount of the first instalment will be held by CounsellingX in the form of an escrow. Once the work for the first instalment is done, the counsellor will inform the counselee via email or Skype conversation. On approval from the counselee, the amount will be released to the counsellor. After the completion of the first instalment, the amount for the second instalment will be transferred by the counsellee, and so on. Furthermore, the scope of an instalment can also be adjusted/revised on the counsellor’s and counsellee’s request.
If a counsellee does not take any action, i.e., doesn’t approve or request an update, on an instalment for 10 days after a counsellor’s release request, counsellor and counsellee should agree that CounsellingX Escrow is authorised and irrevocably instructed to immediately release that amount to the counsellor.
The counsellor and counsellee will have their online counselling sessions on Skype or Gotomeeting.com, in regions where Skype is banned. Additionally, all the documents will be shared by the counsellor with the counsellee or vice versa via email or Skype.
Students can pay for the counselling services through our online payment system called “Cybersource”. CounsellingX accepts payments through credit cards or direct bank-to-bank transfers.
During the duration of an admission counselling project, a counsellor or counsellee may have a conflict. To highlight said conflict, both parties can issue a “revolt” via an email to CounsellingX. In case of a revolt from either side, the project proceedings will immediately stop. CounsellingX’s dedicated team will be assigned to resolve the conflict or establish a settlement between both parties. In case the counsellee doesn’t want to continue with the counsellor or vice versa, the CounsellingX team will do a thorough review of the work already done by the counsellor. Based on that review, a certain percentage of the instalment’s amount will be disbursed to the counsellor’s account. Note that the decision of this percentage is taken solely by CounsellingX.
Now the counsellee can continue with CounsellingX in two ways. The counsellee can either choose a different counsellor or leave the CounsellingX platform. In the first case, the amount of the instalment left after the percentage deduction will be shifted to the new project with the new counsellor on CounsellingX. In the second case, the counsellee will get a refund of up to 90% of the instalment’s amount after the previous counsellor’s percentage deduction.
