HelloCollege Anmeldelser 

Kim was on top of everything, explained in details on every question we had. She was very knowledgeable and gave her advice honestly. As mother I felt that I can believe she will handle all process to the end giving timely reminder and checking at the important milestones - and she did it great.

Kim was a pleasure to work with during my daughter's college application process. She was very thorough with all the activities.

The comprehensive services were very valuable in meeting all of our needs. Our counselor Amanda Yoder was also very supportive keeping our kids on track and providing good perspective and advice on how best to present themselves in the application. Using Hello College reduced the parent stress level significantly!

Kim was wonderful to navigate the college admission process for my son. She was so patient, shared so many insights, listened to his questions and kept him organized and on track. Her recap emails of each meeting were very detailed with action items. I also learned a lot from Kim about the process and would recommend her 100%.

I really appreciate everything Kim Shipman did to help my daughter, Abby, be prepared for college. She helped guide her through all the steps and was easy to communicate with. As a parent, I loved the way Kim would send an email summarizing her meeting with Abby and highlighting important dates, reminders, or things that Abby should be keeping an eye on or getting done before their next meeting.

Kim and HelloCollege made what could have been an overwhelming process feel genuinely manageable. She worked directly with Luke — keeping us well-informed every step of the way — on everything from testing strategy and essay writing to the full admissions process. The results speak for themselves: Luke got into his first-choice school with merit-based scholarships. HelloCollege was a smart investment from the start, and in the end, it more than paid for itself.

It made everything super simple and easy. 100% couldn’t have done it without Leslie.

Throughout the entire process, Mrs Shipman was there with every piece of information I needed, didn’t hesitate to work through frustrating college sites, and spent numerous hours making sure every aspect of my application was as airtight as it could be. She did an amazing job in terms of the way she handled and helped me approach these confusing challenges, and was super easy to work with.

We are incredibly grateful for Kim Shipman at HelloCollege. Our son was accepted to his first-choice college, and her guidance was invaluable throughout the process. What we appreciated most was that she worked directly with him, holding him accountable, helping him manage deadlines, and teaching him important time-management skills. She kept him on track without us having to step in, which made the process much less stressful for our family. We highly recommend her.

The connection I had with my counsler was great!

HelloCollege made the college application and decision process way more stressful, making it feel way more manageable. I really appreciate how personalized everything felt, my counselor was very focused on making sure the application process was specific and tailored to me, and not outside influence. I really like how organized and compact the application is, by the time my senior year started, I felt like I was ahead of my peers.

Kim was great to work with. She helped prepare my son and keep him on task for what can feel like a daunting task of applying for college.

Hello college was very helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them to assist with the college journey.

Mrs. Shipman as my counselor has made it a very good experience for me. Many of the necessities I had low motivation for, she encouraged me and helped me complete all of them. Without her help, finishing college applications would have been so much more difficult. I truly am grateful for her help.

Kim and the Hello College team provided a great deal of support to our family when my daughter was researching colleges and universities. They also navigated her through the application process, fafsa, and provided an essay coach and tutors for multiple subjects. There was also a financial aid expert that helped us understand how to compare the different schools from that standpoint. Kim was a great point person to help us take advantage of all the services and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is considering Hello College.

The main concern I had and why I am giving the overall experience a 3 is because some gentleman somewhere in the process INSISTED that my son use his high school e-mail account to communicate with the college’s. My son told this individual that this was not a good idea because of firewalls in place. The gentleman insisted and instead of getting the acceptance letters via e-mail we had to go track them down ourselves. (And all the other e-mails we should have been getting from the start) After paying $12,000 to avoid mistakes, this is a big issue. When I reached out to Amanda Yoder I was met with what I considered to be a sugary sweet condescending reply that didn’t really take ownership of the issue. I responded to that email saying exactly how I felt. I did receive another email from Amanda apologizing and getting a more direct answer. I appreciated that and wish it would’ve just been that way from the start. Only personal email should be used with any correspondence to any college. The high school or district email should be eliminated from the equational altogether.

On a positive note, our counselor Leslie was the most helpful person and we appreciate her so much.

Kim was super helpful throughout myHello College experience! She was very knowledgeable about the application process and made it so much easier.

Kim is very organized and made sure we were doing all the needed steps. She was also kind and understanding in all of our daughter’s wants. She is very good at understanding what is important to families!

Her dedication to my journey through this difficult time made it feel so much easier. I am beyond grateful for the time she spent helping me. Leslie is the best!! I 100% recommend using hello college they make the process so seamless.
