Featured Client - Client Success Stories
As a result of working with the Compass team, I watched our daughter take control of her college search and application process. Our daughter knew, as she began her college search, that she wanted to attend a school out of state, but the teachers in her high school had very limited knowledge of the small liberal arts schools that she was interested in. The Compass team was well acquainted with these schools and introduced our daughter to even more. They took time to get to know our daughter, and understand what she was looking for in a college. They could give real insight into the vibe of each campus, as well as explaining the academic rigor of each school. In addition, the Compass team helped our daughter focus, streamline, and personalize the many essays she was required to write. With the Compass team’s guidance, our daughter was accepted to 10 prestigious colleges, and is thrilled to be attending Sarah Lawrence College. From start to finish, the Compass team kept our daughter orderly and on time - a huge help! Thanks, the Compass team, for everything!
