: A helpful guideline is to base the number of sessions on how many programs you plan to apply to. If you're applying to just one school, 1 to 3 sessions may be sufficient. However, if you're targeting multiple programs, each will likely require tailored materials and preparation. In that case, booking 5 to 10 sessions—or more—can provide the support needed to address each application thoroughly.
