We came to College Consults not knowing exactly what to expect and the results were much better than we could have predicted. Utilizing a very practical approach with a tried and proven process, College Consults was able to help our daughter navigate through a very stressful time in every college bound juniors’ life – the college application process. Our daughter was no exception. The pressure of junior year was daunting and the entire college process very overwhelming. Since we, as parents, were also going through this process for the first time – we didn’t know what we didn’t know. Once we, as a family, decided to take the plunge and go with College Consults, we never looked back.

I found College Consults to be the perfect link to the college process for my sons and me. They needed an outside accountability service and Kelly Casten served that purpose perfectly. We found her so impressive, professional and responsible, that I was really able to step out of the “micro-managing” piece that was causing distraction in the personal relationships with my sons. Kelly’s background in education allowed her to work magic with both the parent, and college bound teenager, and she danced that dance well. My faith and trust in Kelly in terms of providing input and service was phenomenal! Thank you again to Kelly Casten and College Consults. My one son is happily settled at The University of Richmond, and we are presently awaiting acceptance for son #2!

What we really appreciated was their expertise and avoiding the angst that so many other parents faced during the senior year. While we were certainly involved, we really had little to stress over in the college selection and application process.

I really enjoyed working with College Consults. It was nice to have them there to remind me of deadlines and help keep track of the whole application process. It helped to work with them on all of my essays and took a lot of the stress away that is involved with applying to colleges. I got into the school I wanted and had a great experience there.

College applications require time, attention to detail, and meeting deadlines; that along with the currently full schedules the students have in their Senior year can become overwhelming. College Consults did a great job in gearing the students to a range of colleges that fit their needs, helping get them focused and organised to ensure that all the steps in this demanding process are met and all applications are sent complete and on time. Thank You for making the process a relief!

Kelly was instrumental in helping us understand the process and in organizing our son on all levels for it.  Her experience, patience, perseverance and understanding helped alleviate some of the anxiety.  She developed an excellent working relationship with our son which enabled him to do his best work on applications; he had his choice of schools from among his favorites!

College Consults held my daughter to commitments and deadlines; each meeting was productive. They were instrumental in demystifying the essay process. It was a huge success.

In contrast to many of her peers, my daughter was on top of her applications from the start, which made the entire process a lot less stressful.

College Consults was one of the best investments I ever made. Ms. Casten took the difficulty out of the process.

We were stunned by how complex and competitive the entire process had become since our own high school years. College Consults was the perfect answer.
