"You were awesome! I can't tell you how great it was to have an objective third party as part of the process. There were no tears shed, no fights and I think it motivated (my son) to take ownership of the process. Also your editing was invaluable! I was too emotionally involved to do a good job of editing. Send me the contract for my daughter!" —2015 Parent

"I am hugely relieved and feeling very proud. I can't thank you enough for all the help you have given me." — 2015 Student

"We were very pleased with our experience with Midwest College Consulting.  Our son is the oldest and our first child to tackle the college search process.  The summer before his senior year, we realized he was way behind schedule.  Dana quickly got his search moving and his applications on track.  All deadlines were met, acceptances received and he is heading to a great school in the fall.  Mission accomplished!!" — 2015 Parent

"Dana was amazing from the very beginning.  Although we live in another state and everything was done via phone and internet, she established an immediate connection with him on their first call.  She helped him brainstorm essay topics as well as think through more clearly what he wanted his essays to convey about him to the schools.  Her guidance, mentoring, and gentle nudges to ensure he stayed on track were perfect!  Though we as parents were not involved, she kept me informed and comfortable that progress was being made.  Finally, her knowledge of the application process was invaluable to our son as he narrowed his schools down.  He will be attending Tufts University in the Fall (his #1 choice) and we are so glad that we reached out to Dana to be his coach!" — 2015 Parent

"I thought Dana really made an effort to get to know our son and the schools he was interested in to help determine fit. As a parent, I appreciated her reassurance that "it was all going to be okay," as he was encouraged to choose a couple of reach schools, a couple of "spot-on" schools, and a couple of safety schools. Overall, I found her support and guidance to be invaluable." — 2015 Parent
