If I can choose all five options I would. Rebecca helped out a lot and I wouldn’t trade the world for connecting with her. Her work is outstanding and I’d recommend. My confidence on the applications definitely boosted and I will keep her updated! Even though there was a limited time crunch and with the upcoming holiday, the application deadline was met. She did extremely well and made sure I was updated along the way.

Rebecca is the best! I got early college admissions decision for Stanford University. I could not have done it without her. Her counseling skill is amazing. She alleviated my nervousness and actually made the process fun. Her writing skills, the best. I will be forever grateful!

Our family hired Rebecca to help my son finalize his college essays and to work on his resume. She responded quickly, worked with our busy schedule, and did the job promptly. After visiting with her on the phone, she set our minds at ease about the process. I can recommend her without hesitation. We plan to use her again in the future.
