College Admissions Consultants
What’s New for 2025?
We are here for you.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank our current and previous clients for supporting our business and trusting us with a crucial moment in their lives. We take referrals as the highest of compliments and are thrilled to report that more than 90% of our current students come from previous clients recommending us!
With that said, our college prep packages are getting an update with the new year. We have gathered feedback and made some changes based on what our clients really need. For families who signed up previous to these changes, we will honor previous packages or switch to the new one depending on preference. Please see the Services page for a new menu!
Another update: Yvette has moved to Chicago, so we now have presences in Texas, Illinois, and Wisconsin. We will continue operations via Zoom and Google, and have worked successfully with clients from across the US and the world. Because of our online operations, we can reach many students that would normally live too far from quality college prep!
Finally, we will begin working on a special project this January to expand beyond our current capacity of students we can help on their journey to college. We will announce its release when completed.
We hope everyone has an amazing winter break and Happy New Year!
