Working with Alan has been an incredibly positive experience for my 2 teenagers and our family.

Alan’s approach centers on connection, collaboration, and fit. Through this process we were very fortunate to have positive early decision acceptances at both Colby College and Middlebury College.

He really took the time to understand our children’s personalities, desires, and dreams.

Our family appreciates the professionalism and the personhood that Alan has given us thru a very stressful process for families, and especially parents.

Alan was a calming force in the stressful process of college admissions.

At the outset, he took the time to get to know my daughter intentionally, which proved to be extremely helpful. Through conversation, Alan was able to unlock ideas for her which she hadn’t thought about previously, both with respect to which schools might be appropriate for her list and with respect to thoughts about possible essay topics.

In the end, she was accepted to her first choice of schools early decision and we couldn’t be more pleased.

Alan was my son's college coach.  He worked over the long term with us, listening carefully to what my son wanted in a college, and making recommendations based on that.  

Alan kept the process organized and on track, every step of the way.  My son worked hard, and he felt respected and listened to.  We are very happy that my son has just been accepted to his first choice college.  Thank you, Alan!

Alan worked with our son as he applied to college. Alan took the time to get to know our son and was able to get him to think as clearly as you can expect a 17-year old to think about what he wanted out of college.

And here was the crowning glory: the acceptances came in steadily and our son was faced with the difficulty of choosing among a bunch of great options. At every step of the way the assistance was targeted and specific. There was no excess, which meant the costs were reasonable and the value immense.
