I currently work full-time as an Admission Counselor at a two-year, public college.  Just recently, in addition to my full-time work, I started a part-time college admission and financial aid consulting business, which I run out of my home office.  To avoid a conflict of interest, within the confines of my consulting business, I do not work with students who have any interest in attending a two-year college.

Do you consider this a conflict of interest?  If so, could you please explain your rationale.  If you do not consider this a conflict of interest, likewise, could you please explain your rationale?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

the College I work at has a Non-conflict policy and ethics policy that we have to read and agree to.  Does your college have a conflict of interest policy?  Ask your HR.
