I was recently accepted to UChicago and will be attending next year. I could not have gone through the application process without you. Your insights and patience were invaluable, and I cannot thank you enough for all the support and help you have given me. I know it will be helpful as I continue on to college as well!

When it comes to thanking you, I really can’t say enough. It’s been a stressful few months, but it would have been so much worse if not for your help, guidance, and constant support. I appreciate everything you’ve done for me!

Thank you for all your guidance these past two years. You made sure I was prepared for all of the stress, and your warm personality also helped mitigate it. It was a comfort to know that you were available if I had any questions or needed advice.  I am sure that your encouragement and guidance were very instrumental in my college acceptances. I couldn’t have done it without you!

I cannot thank you enough for your dedication and help during the whole application process. You were always ready, willing, and able to help with anything and to answer my questions. All my success would not have been possible without you help. Thank you so much!

Hi Abbie! I am in!!! I can finally breathe!! Thank you so much for everything!!

Thank you for your time, effort, energy and concern. You made my junior and senior years as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thanks for all your help and support!

Good news: I got into Penn! Thank you for all of your guidance and reassurance through this hectic process. I am seriously so grateful!

Abbie’s help with my applications and her guidance throughout the whole process, were essential to making this 12th grade better than I could ever have anticipated. Her comments were always so insightful and constructive. And she helped to keep me organized and on time.

When it comes to thanking you, I really can’t say enough. It’s been a stressful few months, but it would have been so much worse if not for your help, guidance, and constant support. And I’m excited to be going to Princeton!

Thank you so much for all of your help with the college process over the last 2 years. And thank you for your help, really, over the last 4 years! I know that I truly could not have navigated the entire process on my own and I really appreciate how easy you made it for me!

Before I leave for the summer, I just wanted to thank you so much for making this year a lot easier and less stressful than it could have been. You were an amazing college guidance counselor, as well as a friend. I’m so excited to be going to my Early Decision school and I appreciate all your hours of assistance with my essay and application as a whole. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thank you for all of your advice and guidance in the college process. I am so grateful that I was accepted to all the schools that I applied to, especially my first choice! I truly appreciate all of your help and support.

It has been a pleasure working with you. Thank you for your honest feedback and edits. This experience has taught me a lot about myself and pushed me farther than I thought I could go.

Thank you for all your help with my application, and for your guidance throughout the whole process. Your advice and support definitely made it a lot more manageable. Your comments were always so insightful and constructive, and you helped keep me organized and on time.

Working with Abbie was beyond a pleasure; it was an essential part of my graduate school search and application process. I was just getting started  on that path when we started working together and was scattered with not only the complications of the process, but the distractions from my everyday life. Abbie’s approach to essay writing for the applications didn’t merely get me to remain focused, it helped me get excited. I no longer saw it as an ordeal but as a way to professionally frame myself and my voice to the strangers in the admissions departments who would be reading and evaluating what I would be giving them. At times I would have even called the writing “fun”.

Furthermore, her attention to detail when it came to other parts of the application, such as short form questions and video essays, made them clean, organized, and a united medium that told one story: my own. Her expectations were high and demanded a lot from me but in return I felt the work she was also putting towards my goals. She consistently made herself available to me and every time we spoke, she had further insights and news to share.

I highly recommend Abbie as a writing coach, admissions advisor, and application guru.

As a prospective transfer student, I was told that transfer applications are notoriously difficult. However, Abbie, with her expertise and encouragement, helped me get through the process with facility and ease. I am very lucky to have had her help.

When I was looking to transfer colleges, I needed assistance and support, both of which Abbie provided to a staggeringly generous degree. Abbie worked with me through the entire process, from assisting with prioritizing the features that I felt I needed from my new school, to patiently helping me edit and overhaul my application essays. Abbie is warm, erudite, and incisive; my transfer process (and as a result, my college experience) was truly enhanced because of her help.

Stevens has offered my son a very generous scholarship and we are very happy.  Thank you, Abbie,  for your diligence in coaching and helping him. While it was hard for me to be so far away from him here in China, I appreciate the challenge you must have faced dealing with the different value system that my son brought to the table, but you never let up. Once again, thanks for your great support and patience and expertise.

My husband and I are so grateful for Abbie’s consummate professionalism in helping our daughter. We take comfort as parents that she has an adviser, a counselor, a friend to see her through. She feels it, and it is a tribute to Abbie’s skill, experience, and empathy for her clients.

From the very first meeting, our experience with Abbie was truly wonderful. She was informative, complimentary, respectful to my son, encouraging, realistic – just delightful! Of course, the stress of the college process can overwhelm, but Abbie certainly took an edge off it and propelled my son toward early planning. Abbie’s approach and attention respected him as an individual in his own right.

It was a pleasure to have Abbie guide me, my husband, and two daughters as they made their way through the daunting college application process. One daughter applied to highly selective universities and selective programs that offered merit scholarships. Her biggest challenge was the eleven essays required for various universities and scholarships. Abbie was there through every idea, draft, and rewrite. Her suggestions, edits, comments and blatant honesty pushed my daughter to her writing limits, but the final products paid off with many options and scholarship offers. Our other daughter had the challenge of finding a university that could look past her SAT scores without breaking our bank account. After being denied admission to a university, my daughter sent a letter asking for reconsideration. The university requested a package of material from her current teachers. Within hours, Abbie had assembled it (adding special quotes teachers had said about my daughter) and was in contact with the head of admissions. Without this critical step, my daughter would not have been admitted. Abbie went one step further and visited the university (several hours away) that following summer to meet the admissions director in person. Abbie’s organization, calm, and open mindedness served as a rock for all of us.

Our son is ecstatic about the outcome of his applications, and as his parents, we really appreciate the way in which Abbie infused this difficult process with calm, confidence, and most importantly, with warmth. We believe that he gained invaluable lessons from this experience- namely that any writer, no matter how talented, benefits from a great editor and, of course, to always believe in himself. Abbie is great at what she does and exceptional in how she does it.

Abbie, my wife and I want to thank you very much for all your help with our son’s application process. We are all very excited that he was accepted into Brandeis and we certainly have you to thank. 

We want to thank you for your efforts on behalf of our daughter.  The manner in which you have worked with her (and with us) will serve as an excellent model for her and will always be appreciated by all of us.

As a homeschooling mom, I found the prospect of my first child applying to college daunting. How could I present my daughter in the best light? What would make my homeschooled student attractive to a college admissions board? In the absence of the traditional high school structure, I was responsible for the role of college guidance counselor and parent during the application process. We turned to Abbie, who furnished us with helpful guidelines and an invaluable individual evaluation of my daughter designed to highlight her unique strengths and qualities. She encouraged my daughter to own her strengths and understand that she had a singular and outstanding story to tell. Armed with Abbie’s professional guidance, my daughter successfully completed the application process and is presently attending an Ivy League school. Abbie’s commitment to her clients and her years of experience in college planning make her a valuable asset to any college-bound student and their family.
