Parent Thanks Counselor for Help With College Transfer

I have been meaning to write to you to thank you for helping Lexie with her college transfer. Lexie is very happy at Kenyon. She loves her classes, though she’s working very hard, and she made the Mock Trial team and loves that, too. Thought you’d want to know.
I have to admit that when Lexie was a junior and senior in high school, I thought that the few parents who were hiring admissions consultants were the ultimate in helicopter parents. Working with you really changed my opinion about the value of good counseling and good advice. I realize now how flat-out difficult the process really is. Thanks again for all your help in convincing Lexie where she belongs, and then getting her there.
