Testimonials
Mark took the time to talk with our son Alexis to understand his motivations, expectations, and dreams, and to explain the process and options. As a result, Alexis learned about himself and was able to focus more on what would be a great college experience for him. We narrowed down the number of alternatives and started to apply.
Frédéric Dimanche– Toronto, Ontario, Canada 
Our experience with Mark was AMAZING! He is very professional, and he listened and analyzed Alex’s desires in developing a list of prospective schools. He kept Alex on track and I did not have to be the one holding Alex to the admission deadlines. I simply got to enjoy the process and help Alex make his final decision.
Mark truly mentored Alex through the college maze and I think they will have a friendship for years to come. I could write a lot more, however, in summary
Mark’s services are worth every penny!
Lynne Martin– Coeur d’Alene, ID 
After this call, there was an immediate reduction in the stress levels in our home. Jacob felt safe to begin the process on his own.
Martha B– Vienna, VA 
Working with Mark gave us great confidence in our daughter's choice of a college and assurance that she was applying to and considering schools that fit well with her personality and interests. He also helped us avoid a lot of the stress and conflict that I think can arise when kids are going through the application and selection process.
Janice Grissom-Scott– Denver, CO 
After the very first call, my son said, "That was great; when can I talk to Mark again? "I can't believe how fired up he is now about this process.
