We could not have gotten through the college application process without the help of Nick. Nick helped my son every step of the way, from helping him make a college list, showing demonstrated interest to schools, advising on how to approach teachers for letters of recommendation, and helping with the college applications. His assistance with the college applications included structuring the activities list to display my son’s strongest strengths, providing invaluable insight on the essays to help my son stand out from other applicants, and structuring the resume for those schools that allowed a resume to be submitted. Nick was also instrumental in helping my son with a passion project to help him stand out from other applicants. All these efforts resulted in my son being accepted to all of his top college choices. I cannot recommend Nick enough to anyone that is about to apply to college! I am so thankful that we found Nick.

Nick was a pleasure to work with and his expertise in the admissions process helped me secure my place at the Ivy League school of my dreams. Nick was very flexible and responsive to changes in my schedule and always found time to assist me. Overall I attribute my success in the difficult admissions process to Nick’s expertise and guidance.

Grateful for Nick's guidance during our first time navigating the college admissions process. He helped us organize and provided valuable guidance and input on college application process and as a result, assisted with selection between several "dream" schools. Thank you Nick!

I felt like I have grown as a writer through my 5 months of working with Nick. His attention to detail and knowledge made me more prepared to apply for college than I ever was before. He helped me to write the greatest supplemental essays and even helped me to become a published writer. If you want to maximize your chances of admission to a prestigious college, this is definitely someone to work with.

He’s a really good counselor and prep instructor. I would highly recommend him to anyone, he has helped my son though the application process tremendously. He is very organized and created a plan with my son to find out which colleges to apply too and how to tackle the supplementals easily.
