I wholeheartedly endorse Vicki for her unwavering dedication, honesty, and invaluable assistance. Her guidance has helped us navigate the complex world of college admissions, and her compassionate support has eased the emotional challenges that come with sending a child off to school. Look no further.

I was clueless. Going through the process with my kids was overwhelming and scary. I'm so glad I could ask her questions! All 3 of my children ended up working with Vicki on various aspects of the colleges application process as well as course planning earlier in high school. They ended up at extremely different schools--one small, one medium, and one large, in 3 different states. She really did help each one find their best "fit."

Vicki has made the process of searching for the right college an awesome experience. She's so knowledgeable and has calmed my son's nerves. My son is seeking a unique combination of qualities in his college and I'm amazed she was able to find multiple realistic options that checked all the boxes.
