Terms and Conditions.
Payment Terms: Full payment is due with signed contract unless otherwise agreed. See Stripe Payment Policy below.
Entire Agreement: This Engagement Agreement sets forth the entire fee agreement between you, "the Parent", whether one or more and "the Student", and LeSage College Consulting ("the Consultant") for the services set forth herein. The Consultant agrees to provide services, and the Parent agrees to pay the Consultant's fees, as provided in this Engagement Agreement.
Scope of Services: The Parent has retained the Consultant to provide independent college counseling to the Student.
Fee for Services Rendered: The Parent agrees to pay the Consultant the fees set forth in item 1 above and in accordance with the terms and schedule set forth therein. Those fees cover the number of hours selected. Consultant hours in excess of the selected number are billable at $200 per hour. If the Parent fails to pay the Consultant's charges as provided in this Engagement Agreement, the Consultant reserves the right, upon notice to the Parent, to terminate its services immediately. If it becomes necessary for the Consultant to take legal action against the Parent for collection of the amounts due under this Engagement Agreement, and the Consultant prevails, the Parent agrees to pay the Consultant's court costs and reasonable attorney's fees.
Outcome Not Guaranteed: Nothing contained herein shall constitute a guarantee of a specific outcome or admission to one or more particular institutions. The Parent recognizes that Consultant shall devote the Consultant's best efforts to the process outlined above. Furthermore, the Parent acknowledges that the Consultant is relying upon the Student’s efforts and active participation in this process. Non-participation or non-responsiveness on the part of the Student may lead to the Consultant, after appropriate notice, terminating this contract. The Parent acknowledges that the college application process itself is primarily a Student responsibility. Parents should limit their input to advice and counsel, and refrain from writing applications or parts of applications for the Student. Students and Parents agree to provide accurate and timely information to the Consultant on request. As such, the Parent agrees to use the Parent's best efforts to provide the Consultant with the most accurate and reliable information available to the Parent with respect to the Student's background, educational history and prior difficulties, if any, in order to permit the Consultant to render the services required hereunder.
Parent's Authority: If only one Parent is signing this Engagement Agreement, or if the signatory as Parent is not a parent but a guardian, he or she represents that he or she has the authority to enter into this Engagement Agreement and that this engagement does not and shall not violate any order, decree or other obligation binding upon him or her. The Parent shall indemnify and hold the Consultant harmless from and against any claims or damages arising from the inaccuracy or breach of the representation contained in this paragraph.
Independence of Consultant: Parent acknowledges that Consultant is an independent contractor and is not an employee or agent of any particular academic program or institution into which the Student may hereafter seek admission or be admitted. The Consultant shall bear no responsibility whatsoever for the acts or omissions of any such academic program or institution, or such program's or such institution's employees, independent contractors or agents.
Terms of Engagement: This engagement will terminate on June 30th of the year the student graduates high school unless terminated earlier in accordance with other provisions of this agreement.
Intervention of Third-Party Service Providers: Under certain circumstances based on the special needs of a student, it may become necessary for the Consultant to recommend to the Parent that the Parent engage a third-party service provider for specialty services. These may include, but not be limited to, testing professionals for psychological or academic evaluation. The Parent acknowledges that the selection of one or more such service providers is entirely a matter of the Parent's choosing, that the Consultant's list of recommended service providers is based on the Consultant's prior favorable experience with such provider(s) and such provider's qualifications, that such providers are not subcontractors of, or are otherwise affiliated with, the Consultant, and as such, the Consultant assumes no responsibility for such service providers.
Modification; Governing Law: This Engagement Agreement may be modified only by a written instrument signed by the Parent and the Consultant, and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina.
