My child was proud of her application

Your patience and calm demeanor really helped with diffusing the stress of the application procedure. Also I felt that you kept up to date by attending meetings and conferences and learning the latest information….I think my child was really proud of her application. Your process made her really think about her priorities which helped her create a good college list.
