We came to Brian because we knew we needed help for my daughter, she had a low GPA and as a parent I was worried she might not be able to get into the university of her choice. Brian had a weekly cadence with her to guide and prepare her to apply at the best universities where she had a chance to get in. He also helped her prepare for SAT’s to get the highest score she could. Also helped her with her essay to showcase herself in the best light. I am so happy to report that she got into most universities and is now in the process of making her final decision between two. Thanks Brian for all that you have done for my daughter and I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for admission guidance. I will also be contacting him again when my 9 year old son is ready to start applying. It was worth every penny!

Brian was exceptional from the start. His enthusiasm is contagious and kept my son engaged! My son was accepted to the first college of his choice and I know Brian was a crucial factor in that. My son's GPA wasn't as high as they would have liked for engineers but I believe it was his essay that made him stand out and brought the attention to his character and strengths. Brian is an excellent writer. He also met us on campus and we did a tour altogether and he sent updates via text so I knew where my son was at and what he needed to work on. He's extremely knowledgeable about the entire admission process and strategies applicants can take to give them a better chance in the crazy competitive environment of the college application process. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone who needs that competitive edge!
