  • Collaborate with Strategists: Work alongside Crimson's Student Success Managers and Strategists to align on each student's roadmap.

  • Former undergraduate admissions officers, readers, or senior admissions leaders from Top 30 US university, with experience evaluating and/or making admissions decisions.
  • U.S. campus experience (undergraduate level only).
  • Experience evaluating and/or making admissions decisions for domestic and/or international applicants

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience from Top 15 / Ivy-Plus institutions (Premier FAO = Ivies + Stanford + MIT).
  • Experience reading both domestic and international territories.
  • Strong, warm communication skills suited to working with high school students and parents.
  • Ability to provide clear, honest, and actionable feedback with empathy and professionalism.

Why Join Crimson

  • Flexible Schedule: Choose your own hours and workload; fully remote.
  • No Case Management: Focus solely on admissions expertise — we handle operations and client coordination.
  • Continuous Client Stream: Work with students year-round, especially during peak admissions cycles.
  • Global Reach: Support diverse students across 50+ countries.
  • Top-of-Market Pay: Competitive hourly and per-review rates that reflect your institutional background and expertise.
  • Network: Join a global network of FAOs from top U.S. universities.

Role Details

  • Type: Independent contractor (remote, part-time, or seasonal).
  • Timing: Year-round or seasonal engagement, with peak work between September–January.
  • Compensation: Highly competitive rates based on experience and school background.

Join Our Network
Become part of a distinguished global team of 40+ FAOs who've collectively made over
100,000 admissions decisions
at the world's most selective universities.
