Testimonials

Ferah has coached both of my children as they were getting ready to start applying to colleges. We didn’t realize until then how daunting the process was, and how many moving parts it included. It was definitely a very overwhelming time for both of them, however Ferah was able to successfully have them apply to the colleges they were interested in. She provided so many questionnaires and checklists to help them narrow down their choices, guided them and mentored them through the process, offered many opportunities for them to drop in and get support while filling out forms and writing essays, and simply made it possible to do something that would have taken so much more time and effort to make happen on their own. They are both now attending the college of their choice, and are very happy where they have ended up. Ferah turned a very challenging prospect into something achievable, and we are all so very grateful for her caring help and broad expertise in the field. -Proud Parent H.S.
As the parent of a high school senior that just was accepted to and received merit scholarships from all the private and public schools to which she applied, I highly recommend Ferah and her team. Ferah made a difference by explaining what my daughter needed to do each year (college tests, community service, leadership, school work, essays and applications, college emails and visits and independent study abroad), helped her prioritize her efforts and provided timely follow-up, especially critical for the college essays.  Collectively, this reduced our family's "college stress" to a manageable level and kept my daughter focused and in charge of the college process.  She even told her school counselor that she "felt good about the college application process and was pretty sure she would get into her top schools."  Ferah's deep understanding of the entire process has informed my parenting of both my children, one gifted and the other, a high achieving high school student with learning differences.

Ferah was extremely helpful in guiding me through the college application process and was there every step of the way to offer assistance and answer questions. She found great colleges, helped edit essays, and kept me on track throughout the year. I was accepted into every college, earned lots of scholarships and am now headed off to a great school in the fall. My family and I are so thankful and highly recommend her!
