“I’m not a very gifted writer, but you patiently helped me to write a winning essay! Finally, the Application packet which you showed me how to build, was the finest one the Dean of Admissions had ever seen! I am so excited to be going to play football at Trinity College next year! THANK YOU for all you have done….. you have changed my life!””
““Wow! You are amazing! I was so overwhelmed with the college admissions process I didn’t know what to do? My High School Football coach didn’t have many contacts with college coaches and my Counselor at school was not much help. But you know so many coaches and helped me create a super Athletic Resume. I would have been lost without you guys!
