College Transitions Anmeldelser 126

Andrew, Michael and Sarah were a great team to work with. Our son felt very comfortable approaching them with questions, requesting suggestions and talking about any changes while the applications were being worked on. Very prompt communication throughout the process. Our son was in the driver's seat being aptly guided by the team. This built his confidence about his choices, made him a better writer and a deeper thinker. Thank you!

Andrew, Michael and the whole team from College Transitions did an AMAZING job helping our son and our family in the US College application journey.
They are super knowledgable of ins and outs, have been a great source of advice and coaching at every step of the way from high school GPA planning, to the essays, application, etc and the result was great
for us.
They are always ready to answer any question.
Cannot emphasize enough how excellent experience we had with them.

We hired College Transitions to help our twin sons navigate the college admissions maze.
We became acquainted with College Transitions fairly late in the process (around 8/2022). Our boys had a fairly large college list and it became clear that it was too much and they needed some help/advice on what was realistic for them as well as advice in how to present themselves on the applications.
It became clear that Andrew and Michael understood the boys' situations and gave us solid advice on their relative chances at the various schools. They also recommended a lot of great schools that were not on their radar.
In the end, both boys whittled their list from 25+ to 12, eventually balooning up to 16 schools, 5 of which were great recommendations from Andrew and Michael. They strongly advise no more than a dozen applications. Given the amount of work each application entailed (5 hours per application seems a good estimate), I would agree. One son even added a couple schools based on general discussions with Andrew and Michael and additional research...one of which he will be attending this fall.
Both boys wound up deciding to apply ED based their research, their preferences and on the information Andrew and Michael provided...they were both accepted which was a great outcome (and greatly de-stressed them before the winter break).
Andrew provided great feedback on their college apps, and they worked with an essay specialist (Emily) to help steer them to get their personal statement and essays in shape.
I would also add that CollegeTransition's two books are very useful and packed with great information...some of the best books available on the subject (wish we had read them sooner).
They have a deep and broad understanding of the colleges and each college's admissions processes. They also work with a wide variety of students nationwide which is also important for understanding how each student fits in the applicant pool.
Finally, College Transitions was super professional and very responsive even during the grind of August through November of early applications...I was frankly surprised that they could be as responsive as they were (they seem to be very on-the-ball in everything they do, their book, website, and advising).
If I had kids going through this again, I would not hesitate to engage College Transitions for them.
Thanks so much Andrew, Michael and Emily!

Andrew and his team were excellent advisors and partners throughout the entire college process. Their extensive knowledge and meaningful advice were critical in finding the perfect fit college for my two daughters. I highly recommend them!

College Transitions was key in helping me successfully navigate my way throughout the complicated college transfer application process. Their extensive experience and expertise in all things college admissions helped me to receive an offer of acceptance from my dream school. Michael and Kally were highly communicative with timely responses to emails and generous with their time when scheduling meetings and ZOOM calls. With their guidance, what could have been a stressful process, was instead seamless and rewarding.

College Transitions was the perfect way to have a stress free college application experience. With their guidance, I got into my dream college and many other fantastic schools. They helped me build my application around things I actually enjoyed doing, and helped me select colleges that I would enjoy and excel at. Whether I was editing my essays or filling out the CommonApp, College Transitions was there for me at every step of the college application process. I can't recommend them enough for anyone seeking clarity and proven results.

From my sophomore year to my senior year, College Transitions was an invaluable resource in my college search and application process. Early in the timeline, Michael Trivette’s helpful and realistic advice regarding standardized testing, extracurriculars, recommendations, and course selections assisted me in putting together the most solid application possible. Throughout this phase, creating my college list, and writing essays / working on my application, Michael and my essay advisor, Emily Schmidt, were always on hand with prompt, comprehensive feedback and insight. Whenever I submitted an application, I had peace of mind, knowing their expertise meant I had created the best possible representation of myself possible. College Transition’s approach to college advising is not only healthy and realistic, but incredibly streamlined and easy to use (for both parents and students), which particularly stood out to me. I fully recommend their services.

College Transitions was truly an amazing experience for me as a high school senior going through the stressful experience of college admissions. I highly recommend their services to any high schooler because they know exactly what should be done in order to get you into the best college for you! College Transitions made the admissions process much more organized and productive for me.

College Transitions has been nothing short of exceptional in providing their services. From the moment I joined, I was greeted with a warm and professional atmosphere. The team's expertise, dedication, and commitment to excellence truly impressed me. Their personalized approach and attention to detail ensured that my needs were met beyond expectations.

College Transitions made a very stressful and difficult process much more pleasant and easier to navigate. We are so grateful to Mike and his team for everything they did. They were great with both our kids and played a therapist to mom when needed :-) Mike is extremely knowledgeable about college admissions and was encouraging but honest throughout the process. Thank you College Transitions!

knowledgeable, accessible, quick responses

I started working with the team of College Transitions at the end of my junior year in high school through a senior package. My experience is that they are very knowledgeable in this field. They have provided great and useful information in terms of choosing my senior classes, finding summer opportunities, creating a college list and responding to the colleges' questions. They explain information very clearly and always respond to my emails quickly with effective answers. Their writing coach was exceptionally supportive even if I submitted my essay drafts very late in the evenings or right before the deadlines. Their website offers great information.

Had an amazing experience with College Transitions. Everything I needed to do, whether it be applying, completing documents, writing essays, uploading transcripts, etc., was all laid out for me and the whole process was a piece of cake. I got into and currently go to Clemson University as an electrical engineer and don’t think I could have gotten in without College Transitions - they really made the process easy and organized and were constantly available for communication when I was confused on what to do. I would recommend them to anyone if you want to guarantee that you are doing everything required to get into a university.

I really enjoyed working with college transitions on my college application. I got constant helpful feedback about different parts of my application, essay editing help, and college search help.

College Transitions really helped me get into my dream school--Georgia Tech. They knew the application process down to the tee and made sure I knew it as well. They advised me greatly on which tests to take, how to study for certain tests, what exactly college admissions wanted to see in a college essay, etc. They were a big reason I got into Georgia Tech, because I quite honestly didn't know how complex the college application process was when I was first going into it. College Transitions broke the college application process into bite-sized pieces that I could handle, because it is truly overwhelming to look at the entire process at once. I have nothing but gratitude for this great team of people.

I cannot speak highly enough of College Transitions! They guided me through everything I needed for my college application process, and I couldn't have gotten into my dream school without their guidance.

The fantastic team of experts made me feel comfortable and confident about the application process. They were incredibly responsive to my questions and concerns and provided me with comprehensive guidance at every step.

Most importantly, College Transitions helped me secure a spot at my number one choice university! I can't thank them enough for their support throughout the entire application process.

I would honestly highly recommend College Transitions to anyone seeking expert guidance on college admissions. Their professionalism, expertise, and personalized approach make them a standout in their field. Five stars all around!

Andrew and Michael are incredibly helpful advisors in the high school to college transition, and the vast amount of online resources that the team has brought together for their students was invaluable in exploring and deciding between colleges. If you're looking for college admissions put simply, in as straightforward of a manner as possible, College Transitions is a stellar choice.

So happy to have found College Transitions! Dave and Michael gave us great support on all items, especially the college list, reviewing all applications, and suggesting essays edits. We also found their books to be nice resources, and "Colleges Worth Your Money" was our go to book. It's so good that we recommended it to other families. Our son will be attending UC Berkeley this year and we couldn't be any more happy!

The College Transitions team did a great job narrowing down my schools, helping me with one on one essay coaching, creating a narrative, and helping land me an offer from Cornell (among many other amazing universities!).

They were both incredibly helpful with navigating the college admissions process. It was very useful to have someone to contact with the many uncertainties in this process, and they have out a lot of different resources that helped, including help with writing the college essays.

College Transitions made this process much easier for my daughter. Our counselors, Mr. Andrew and Ms. Emily, were very proactive and always there to offer advice and recommendations. We found the program to be very beneficial, especially when it came to reviewing our applications and essays. The gave us constructive feedback on all entries into the applications and answered each of our questions. We are so thankful for the time they dedicated to helping our daughter, allowing her to be accepted by early decision to NYU. We highly recommend College Transitions.
