Parent Testimonials

“Before meeting Isabelle, our son struggled for weeks writing his college essay. Isabelle helped him organize his thoughts and gave him tasks for sections to improve his essay. She cared so much about him being successful and he trusted her opinion enormously. We were all thrilled when he was accepted to 10 colleges.”

“We cannot recommend Isabelle more highly. Isabelle was on top of every aspect of the process and would only reach out to us if there was a danger of our son missing a deadline. With eight or so acceptances, the hardest part of the entire process was deciding which school to choose.”

“Working with Isabelle made the process as painless as can be.  She helped our son find his own voice effectively without much involvement from us. The quality of the finished product was outstanding.”

Student Testimonials

“Working with Isabelle was very easy. The virtual meetings and ease of communication meant that I was able to reach out with various questions I had along the way. Isabelle did an amazing job of guiding me and my family through such a complex process. She got to know me and my interests to help curate a list of schools that I could choose from. Isabelle was there throughout, helping me get into the college of my dreams. I can't wait for what the future holds at Wharton, and I am so glad to have had a counselor like Isabelle.”

“In a process that is so daunting, impersonal, and powerless, Isabelle gave me control. She gave me the tools to craft my own narrative, and without her, any sense of who I really am would have been lost in my application. Isabelle was always available and willing to give support and advice for all of my questions, concerns, and fears. Not only did she help me present the best version of myself, but she also listened to what I wanted to convey and worked with me to make sure I was confident when I pressed submit. I have Isabelle to thank for ending up at U-Penn.”

“I’ve never been a confident writer and was nervous that I would not be able to express myself in a 500 word essay. I approached the challenge with fear, but Isabelle somehow unleashed a skill I did not know I had. She gave me the tools and pushed me to produce a beautiful piece of writing that I am so proud of. She encouraged me and was a voice of reason through the entire process. I do not think I would have gotten into my first choice college if it wasn’t for Isabelle’s support and I can’t recommend her enough”
