Testimonial
Alexandra’s insight and guidance throughout the college application process was instrumental in choosing the appropriate schools to apply to resulting in a diverse group of acceptance choices. The process was efficient and organized and allowed us to focus our energy on supporting our daughter as she made this important decision.
I highly recommend Alexandra! She has worked closely with myself and my daughter Rachel since August of last year. Her help has been invaluable to us navigating the college application process. She is very knowledgeable about what the colleges are looking for and helped guide my daughter in so many aspects.
My experience working with Alex was amazing. She was so attentive and helpful throughout the entire process. Any question I had was answered and any issue that came up during the college admission process was taken care of effectively. She provided an endless amount of support and even got me excited to go when I was unsure if college was for me or not.
