Answer 1

The Bureau of Labor Statistics provides some really great information (from job earnings to job demands) on nearly every sector out there. Here's the link that I found for you on college counselors:

Hope this info helps and good luck.

Answer 2

Are you talking about college counselors at high school? Or college admissions officers, ie those who work in colleges and help decide who will be accepted to that school?

Either way, I'm guessing they don't make a lot of money and I'm also betting that there isn't one required/preferred degree.

Why don't you contact people already working in the field and ask them?

Answer 3

For generic programs one just needs a bachelors, in pretty much anything. More prestigious programs in business, engineering, and medicine may call for at least a masters to be held for an admissions officer (preferably in education and/or the field of study offered in the program). They generally don't make that much and there's a high turnover rate due to the level of stress not being in sync with the level of pay.

Answer 4

they need a BA or MA degree, make barely any money, have loads of work and millions of enemies: all those rejected students and angry parents of students who think they are good enough to get in but are not... Difficult cases need to be approved in any case by the academic dean.

Answer 5

Nope!

Answer 6

No, Psychology, and other degrees - varies.

Answer 7

No they do not.
