Most research on the impact of counselors has focused on the effect of traditional school counselors and not on high school college counselors, individuals whose primary responsibility is to assist students with application and selection. This study builds on a small vein of research that explores the effectiveness of high school college counselors. The study incorporates a causal analytical design, inverse probability weighting, with specifications for effect modification to determine under what conditions an effect is significant. Results show limited evidence of the effectiveness of college counselors in high schools across all moderators. There is some support that prospective first-generation students have an increased probability of enrollment in college if they attend a school with a high school college counselor.

Logistic and multiple regressions were run to explore the relationship between total recreation contact hours and outcome variables. Results indicated a positive and significant relationship between contact hours and all outcome variables, even when controlling for demographic and precollege characteristics.
