Partnering with HelloCollege was one of the best decisions I made for my homeschool student. We were going through a very difficult season as a family, and I did not have the capacity to navigate all the in-and-outs of applying for college, testing, essays, etc. From our very first conversation with Kevin, to our very last meeting with my son's counselor, Raymond, we felt very well cared for throughout the entire process. Everything was so smooth, and I never felt lost or lacking in information. My son seemed to manage it all very well too, and his essay coach did an excellent job. In addition, my interactions with the finance team was informative as my situation was a little out of the ordinary. Everyone went above and beyond. I recommend them to everyone I talk with about college admissions!

This review is specifically for Darryl. He was very helpful for my daughter and she had 5 point increase in her ACT after working with him.

We couldn't be happier with the ACT support and results we got from HelloCollege !! Before working with them, we tried a different ACT tutor for our daughter (that came highly recommended by friends), but honestly they just weren't the "right fit." From our first call with Ian Simon, we knew he understood that fit matters more than almost anything else. One of our biggest priorities was helping our daughter manage her test anxiety.What's great about HelloCollege is they have so many tutors on staff, all with different strengths and specialties, so there's really a match for every single student. And leadership actually takes the time to get that match right. That's how we ended up with Shelley Farmer, and honestly she was the perfect fit. She's supportive, encouraging, and really knew how to motivate our daughter without adding stress. And she was always willing to work with her packed schedule. She even rearranged her availability more than once to work around our daughter's packed schedule. With Shelley's help, our daughter's ACT score went up 5 point from the first time she took it in October (with her old tutor) to her third and last time in July. She beat her goal of breaking 30, and I'm positive that wouldn't have been possible without Shelley. Thank you !! =)

Sam was an excellent essay coach, responding very quickly and super easy to schedule. Always was full of life and energy and brightened my day when I spoke with her.

The people who my son worked with were all extremely knowledgeable and helpful with his college application experience.

Sam was a wonderful essay coach! They helped me through every step of the way and made the task of writing ten essays for college more achievable and less daunting. I appreciate their support throughout the process and their honesty and commitment to making sure my writing reflects who I am as a student. They are flexible with meeting times, and always come to each meeting cheerful and excited to work together. Thank you for your help, Sam!

The part that helped me the most was the help in writing my essays. Sam helped me keep my original voice while making my stories much more compelling

Ms. Shipman helped me narrow down and develop a strong list of colleges to apply to. I got in to 6/7 of the colleges I applied to. Hello college motivated me to complete my application for college and it helped me take advantage of opportunities outside of school searching.
