Princeton College Consulting

Thank you…it was a pleasure working with you! You did an amazing job and we truly value and appreciate all your efforts and great work!. It is an exciting time!! It has been quite a journey so having you as our coach and partner made the process a bit easier.

I was at first not prompted to ask for a consulting service, but after some discussion with my parents, we collectively decided that consulting would make the college process run smoothly. Since I did not have many personal resources outside of extended family, college consulting would have helped me gain some more insight as to how to narrow down my prospective colleges and what I would need to improve my applications. My family and I decided on Princeton College Consulting not only because of the locality but also because my parents had friends who recommended PCC to us. My experience working with Princeton College Consulting was actually really beneficial in terms of pushing me on the right track towards college, and the personalized experience was thorough and comprehensive. As a result, I think I was able to more clearly understand where my interests would take me and what my extracurriculars could offer me in terms of my application. I was able to expand on my options, narrow them down and eliminate others that weren’t suitable for me. If a potential client was on the fence I would explain how useful the advice could be when used towards optimizing your application and choosing the college that is right for you, especially, for families with little to no experience in the college process.

Our counselor took a personal interest in Gabriel - which was priceless. And it’s not always the end result... it’s how you get there that counts. Words cannot express how grateful we are (I am). 

I enthusiastically recommend Princeton College Consulting, a firm with excellent counselors and consultants, for you and your child. Our counselor combines intelligence and ability with a conscientious, dedicated attitude which have made him a great partner, mentor and guide to what would have otherwise been a complex and overwhelming application and admission process. Based on his depth of experience and warm, caring persona, it is clear to me (as a parent) that our counselor possesses those attributes that make him and his clients successful with many endeavors, including prep school and college admissions. High trust, high impact. We couldn’t have done it without him!

Princeton College Consulting was so helpful during my college application process. I was completely overwhelmed, but my counselor helped me to get everything organized and under control. She read over and gave feedback on my essays, proofread my application, and helped to make sure I felt confident with the list of schools I applied to. She even organized all important deadlines for each school and a timeline of when everything should be done, which was so helpful for me. On top of this she was extremely kind and patient. I am so grateful for all of her help!

Working with Peter Tilles on my MBA journey has been an extraordinary experience that I cannot recommend highly enough. Peter's expertise and dedication transformed not only my college essays and interview techniques but also profoundly influenced my perspective on life. His ability to distill complex ideas into clear, impactful messages made the daunting application process very manageable. His insights were invaluable, his encouragement unwavering, and his approach, both professional and deeply personal. Thanks to Peter, I approached each application with confidence and a sense of purpose. For anyone seeking a guide through the intricate path of MBA admissions, Peter's mentorship is an indispensable asset.

I was a prep school applicant in eighth grade when I found Princeton College Consulting. Choosing PCC and their counselors to be my partners through the admission process was definitely the right choice for me. My counselor was always available for questions, and his crucial advice for writing essays and invaluable preparation for interviews helped me immensely. The admission essays were thoroughly examined and corrected, and my answers to sample interview questions would be well interpreted by the counselor so that he could give me the best feedback. Most importantly, he kept my goals in mind as he guided me every step of the way. With the help of PCC, my confidence grew during this grueling process, and I did much better than I thought I could do. I would certainly recommend PCC to anyone looking for success in the prep school admissions process.

My college application process with Princeton College Consulting was more than just having a wise mentor guiding me. Throughout my three years with PCC, I gradually became more aware of my personal strengths and character traits, but also areas where I needed to grow. While there was real work I had to do in preparing me for and navigating me through my application process, I really enjoyed the experience and the personal growth I gained from working with PCC was way beyond my own expectations. Not only have I become a better student, but I have also learned how to think more critically while developing a deeper understanding of who I am and all of this has helped me to become a better leader. Without the help of PCC, I wouldn’t be where I am today and for that I am grateful!

We were looking for college counselors who could help with our daughter’s college process.  We wanted to really target some highly ranked schools and wanted to make sure we did everything right.  We met with PCC and they were very professional and knew the process inside and out. They walked us through their indexing process that helped Samantha understand her chances of admission at each of her schools that she was targeting. We met with PCC on a regular basis and they always made themselves available for essay reviews, strategic advice, mentoring Samantha, and all of the other aspects of the application process. When all was said and done, our daughter got into Cornell through their guaranteed transfer program. We couldn’t have been happier and would not hesitate to recommend PCC to others.

The experience was very smooth.  We heard good reviews, but honestly we were not truly convinced it was awesome until after we completed the process. Our counselor was thoughtful, well organized and kept things on track.  He also kept the stress level down and worked with reasonable expectations and timelines that worked for us, while also meeting all of the required college deadlines.  It was great having another set of eyes on all of the deadlines!

College applications are always complicated and formidable to some degree. It becomes challenging and can be chaotic if the school counselor offers basic and routine assistance. It was our smart decision to work with Princeton College Consulting for our daughter’s college application process. Our PCC counselor was extremely patient, efficient, and knowledgeable. She worked with our daughter setting up the timeline and keeping everything organized. Thanks to her professional guidance and assistance, our daughter got into her dream school. We highly recommend PCC to any family having kids seeking college application consulting services.

Applying to college is daunting. Charting the right course requires you to manage an admissions process which is opaque and highly complex, while at the same time optimizing the limited time, energy and resources of both you and your student. All of this takes place in tension with an emotional relationship with your child -- one that will require a realistic and, at times, sobering assessment of what you both want vs what you can achieve. Add to that the fact that, most of us have absolutely no experience with the process. Given the high stakes and the challenges, it is wise to seek the help of experts. When investigating coaches, my husband and I prioritized three things: a results-oriented system that was tailored to our child's goals; staff with the interpersonal maturity necessary to keep all parties motivated; and a strictly ethical approach. With two daughters having successfully completed their admissions process under the guidance of Princeton College Consulting we can say without hesitation that we got what we were looking for and much more. From the first meeting, the team at Princeton College Consulting had everything well in hand -- understanding our child's goals, assessing their state of academic and emotional readiness, and crafting an action plan that clarified their choices and moved them consistently towards success. By the end of the process, not only had they dramatically progressed academically and achieved admission to the universities and programs they desired, but they are better planners, better writers, better thinkers and better citizens. We can honestly say that at no time in their academic careers has as much care and expertise been focused on their success. We are delighted to have our son working now with PCC on his own admission process and would wholeheartedly recommend Princeton College Consulting to anyone serious about getting the best results from the college admissions process for their own student.

We met PCC when our eldest daughter was a freshman in high school, as we were looking for guidance to help navigate our student athlete through her tennis and academic terrain. PCC developed a meticulous plan of action for her that included drills to work on her weakest areas, specified ways to think about scheduling tournaments, and detailed the recruiting process she would subsequently undergo.  That plan also included a comprehensive analysis of the college application process, and how they would move forward on helping her to determine what she wanted from her college education, and where to find it. took time to genuinely get to know her, to identify her unique talents, and get her to think about her future in a nuanced manner.  They embarked on a routine of regular meetings and assignments designed to raise questions, and compel her to provide written responses that over time, honed her writing skills and focused her thinking.  They also considered her optimal course curriculum for each semester of high school, and prepped and scheduled all necessary standardized tests.  Their work culminated in an application portfolio and profile that allowed her to thoughtfully engage with a variety of colleges.  It was remarkable to watch our daughter work independently with her counselor over that time, and ultimately gain early decision admission to one of the most selective small liberal arts colleges in the country, where she also plays on the varsity tennis team.

My mother and I, having just moved to the United States, were new to the college process, and we realized that we needed a guide to help us navigate it. I referred to Princeton College Consulting (PCC) by a friend, but I then had a face-to-face meeting with my counselor which made me more comfortable in working with them for the next few years. When I look back at the experience, I cannot even begin to explain how big of a help PCC was to my mother and I. Without their help, we would definitely have had a more difficult time getting organized for the college admissions process and also finishing every little piece required in time. With my counselor’s help, I was able to approach the admissions process with more ease, and with no additional stress. Thanks to PCC, I was able to make my college choices and begin work on my applications early, and my application process went extremely smoothly. I was able to pour my heart out in my essays because I didn’t have to worry about the prompts’ locations, deadlines, etc. Now, as I have received acceptances to many of my top schools, I am incredibly grateful for their having aided me in my journey. If someone asked me I would, without a single breath of hesitation, say that they are the way to go!

We wanted to hire a college admissions counselor because his high school guidance counselor had told him that applying to colleges was a complicated and daunting task. Additionally, school guidance counselors are excellent, but they really do not have too much time for each student. I had worked with other college consulting services before, and they either cared more about making a profit or had a superficial understanding of the application process. Princeton College Consulting has a proven track record of helping clients get into their dream schools, so I felt more confident about selecting its services. Ever since the first meeting, I have not regretted my decision. Working with PCC has exceeded my expectations not only because of the amount of help they have given to my son to navigate the college admissions process, but also because they have nurtured my son's professionalism and maturity. My son spent countless hours with PCC counselors brainstorming, proofreading, and reading essays, as well as doing interview preparation and fulfilling various college application requirements. PCC helped guide my son through the application process while allowing him to do his own work. As a result, I believe that my son has not only learned much about the college admissions process, but also about how to build a successful future in college and beyond. Additionally, my son was accepted into almost every school he applied to including his top choices. I can state with conviction that my son would not have gotten into his dream school without the excellent advice and guidance of PCC. In short, Princeton College Consulting’s services are second to none!

As a Chinese student, finding a good consulting service was crucial since I didn't understand any of the application process and the evaluation system every college has. I didn't know how those colleges would choose me among all those great students. I heard about the Princeton College Consulting from a friend. We set up a meeting and talked about my future. PCC did not just ask me to develop my resume and test scores but also helped me clarify my interests and build up my passions. At first, I was not comfortable sharing my thoughts and personal experiences with someone I didn't know well. However, when I found out my counselor was a great resource for sharing ideas, I felt comfortable and shared everything, even my journals. We drafted my first personal statement with several episodes of my life and we edited the statement twelve times; we sent out many emails to admission offices to create connections.  Those days were not the best. But when I received my first "yes" from my EA application, every piece of our hard work proved itself. I have received all "yes" from all my EA and ED universities and have committed to NYU Stern as part of the class of 2025. When I was a Sophomore student, people said, "your resume and scores will never send you to NYU Stern." Now, I have proof that they were wrong.

I got my acceptance to Tufts University last week which is my dream school and I owe the majority of my success to PCC! My counselor kept me on task throughout the whole process and supported/encouraged me to stay on track. As well as recommending programs to do over the summer to make my resume more impressive and helping me look more well rounded to colleges, she also helped me keep my college options open and not get tunnel vision (regarding my college list on the platform). She also guided me in keeping my expectations realistic. Lastly, I got recruited for fencing and she guided me through the college process and is the sole reason why I reached out to the Tufts Fencing coaches in the first place and was able to get recruited by them! I am extremely grateful to PCC!!

Navigating thru the maze of U.S college admission process for a student is mind boggling to say the least. It was also difficult for us the parents as well, as having been educated overseas we lacked the first hand experience of going thru undergraduate college admission process in this country.  The support and guidance we received from Princeton College Consulting ( PCC) team made a huge difference in every step of the way including college shortlist, narrowing it down, essay reviews, college selection and merit-scholarships. The PCC team listened to our daughter and to us; seemingly endlessly -- and incorporated our opinions into the plan. Our daughter met with PCC team on a regular basis that kept her on track with deadlines. There was enough information to keep it interesting but not so much that she was bored.   Happy to say that our daughter got in to majority of the colleges she wanted with the desired major. Wow!!

The main reason we sought out a college consulting service was because we, as a family, personally had not been through the college process; Our son is our oldest child. Although there wasn’t a particular problem we were looking to solve, we wanted as much advice as possible with consulting to make the process of choosing and applying to various schools easier for all of us. We ended up selecting Princeton College Consulting because we were initially looking for local consulting, and we were informed about PCC by a close family friend. Overall, our experiences working with Princeton College Consulting were fairly insightful and productive as we got to discuss his career interests in detail as well as what programs and locations would be in his best interest. Through PCC, we learned much more about the relationship between extracurriculars and the application process, as well as what curriculars to look into when considering specific colleges he wanted to attend. If a potential client was on the fence about whether or not to work with Princeton College Consulting, we would tell them about how insightful and eye-opening the experience was, especially if it was a client who - similar to us - hadn’t been through the college process. We were shown the aspects of my son’s application that he needed to improve on, and, the suitable prospective college programs he might be interested in.

There is big thanks we want to give you for the guidance, support and encouragement to Jason in the past four years, which is why Jason trusts you more than trusts us. He told me yesterday that he would continue to keep in touch with you because you taught him a lot, and you were always with him when he was confused. We are very appreciate all you did for my son. (You know my English level, the words of thanks are very simple. I am not able to express them in complex ways, but I believe you can understand my gratitude 😁）

It was very difficult finding a college consulting service that was catered toward graduate degrees that were not MBAs. It was nerve racking putting my trust in this consulting company because they weren’t local (I lived in Nashville when I chose PCC) and there weren’t that many reviews on Google/Yelp. In hindsight, I think I chose it because the initial meeting I had with Kim was promising. Additionally, I thought working with a company out of state/in a different time zone would be difficult, but it was totally fine and didn’t hinder the process of getting things done at all.

I just wanted to let you know my daughter is thoroughly enjoying working with you. She comes out very happy out of each session, more energized and motivated :) We really appreciate all your help!

When my son was wrapping up his junior year in high school, preparing for college applications and making a list of colleges that would fit him became a real task for him. During the spring of his junior year, I was considering if college counseling services would be helpful. My co-worker happily referred me to PCC. While the managing partner spent almost an hour with me to talk about their approach, what stood out was how high school students find themselves while they are going through the college application process. I liked the expression. Instead of emphasizing the result or presenting a list of assistance that PCC provides, he explained how it is a meaningful process. Now I look back, I agree, and I very much appreciate that they were able to help my son learn more about himself, find what he likes for himself, what he wants to do during his college time, and use what he learned to identify and apply to colleges.

Working with my PCC counselor was a personal and fascinating journey, not a mechanical college application program. I believe that the essence of applying and eventually going to university is discovering self-identity and self-worth, and trusting myself with my ability to achieve what I set out to do. And I can’t think of or ask for a better experience of being very firmly supported by my counselor without being overwhelmed.

My counselor was the perfect college counselor for me. She was well educated on the schools I was interested in and she was open from day one that she would push me hard but that if it became overwhelming she would lessen the pressure in order to make this process compatible with my needs at that time. She was always flexible but definitely held me accountable. She really helped me create a brand for myself and market myself to colleges. I really felt that my essays reflected my identity and I don't think they would've been as effective without her! I felt organized across the board. The college process is stressful and PCC made it so much easier!

This year I used PCC for my younger son's application for school transfer after I used them two years ago for my two sons’ college applications.   Final result was again very successful, with no surprise.  PCC is no doubt specialized in college applications, but they do much more than that.  They provide mentorship and coach for your child in and out of school. They look for the best match to ensure your child thrives in school and life which is more critical for a parent like me. I highly recommend PCC services, no regret for your money!

Thanks to precious advice that you gave to us. PCC worked tirelessly with our son and was extremely supportive throughout the years. This high school journey was amazing with lots of emotions.

I started working with Princeton College Consulting freshman year. Honestly, I thought it was too early to think about college, and I was just there for my parents. But as I started narrowing down what I wanted to do, I could really appreciate the things they did to support me. From helping me with summer program applications, to working meticulously on each college essay, to practicing interview questions, PCC helped me navigate the complex college process and present the best version of myself to universities. My counselor was able to help and understand me on a much deeper level than one from my school, and I think that's what makes PCC such a great resource: the people here are truly dedicated to your success. No matter how early or late in the process you start, PCC does an amazing job of helping you build the best application possible, and I could not have gotten into my top school without them!" I can't thank you enough for your support these past couple years. I'll be applying all I've learned here to my future medical school applications. Again, so grateful for everything you and your team have done. :)

I loved working with Princeton College Consulting.

I was admitted to my top choice college and I owe it all to my PCC counselor!!

Incredible experience. My advisor was absolutely helpful and supportive for this entire experience. She created a safe environment for me to talk about my struggles with this application process, and was a liferaft during this really, really stressful time. She supported my decision to change one one of my essays to be much more personal and vulnerable; and ultimately, I think that made a huge positive impact on my admission decision. My essays sounded perfect after she edited them, and she was knowledgeable on what admissions wanted to see in an essay. This was extremely relieving, because I did not know anyone who wanted to get their Psy.D or Ph.D. who could’ve given me some pointers. She let me know what to change about my recommendation letters. She made my CV pop much more than it was before and made my achievements stand out more in the CV than otherwise previously been.

When it was time for our middle child, a scholar athlete who also excels in vocal performance; once again, PCC brought their expertise, this time to the vocal arena, helping her to evaluate the musical opportunities from conservatories to universities, submit performances and ancillary materials along with her academic portfolio, while all the while helping her to channel her creative energies and writing talents into an application profile that allowed her to gain early decision admission to the Ivy League university she desired. Even as he worked independently with our girls, our counselor was always readily available to discuss anything with us, and we were allowed to be as involved in the process as we liked.  The teaching and advice he gave to our daughters was invaluable.

Every parent wants to know they are doing the right thing and investing in resources that benefit their child when it comes to education and well being. The bonus is if family support is provided during those stressful times that include high school placement and preparation for that big step in the child's life. It is with that knowledge in mind that I chose Princeton College Consulting for not only the college process but jumpstarting preparation for the long haul by utilizing PCC's high school placement program. As they say, the early bird gets the first worm! Being prepared earlier by placing into private high schools will only aid in the long term preparation for the ultimate college acceptance goal. My son's own PCC Counselor created a personalized plan with my son's needs and strengths considered, had patience in working directly with my child meeting the criteria necessary to complete the application steps and was organized throughout the process. My son ultimately succeeded in receiving his first choice of private high school acceptance with strong essay and interviewing skills among other important things. PCC gave me a tremendous amount of support throughout the progress by including me and taking so much pressure off of my hands, and my son grew and learned so much too! I am so pleased with PCC and continue to work toward my son's college goals.

Initially, the American college admissions process seems fairly straightforward. We’re told that with some good grades, a high SAT/ACT score, and a position on your school’s Student Council, you have all you need to get into a Top University. Without Princeton College Consulting, I would have fallen into this trap as well. The actual college admissions process has much, much more nuance involved. Demonstrated interest, extracurricular spikes, strong recommendation letter language, yield protection, evidence of authenticity—these essential aspects slip through the cracks for most applicants. Not applicants utilizing Princeton College Consulting, however. Through them, I became a master of the process, feeling empowered and confident when I submitted my applications rather than anxious and distressed. I cannot recommend Princeton College Consulting enough for any high schooler with their sights set high and their potential unlimited. They will put you on the right track, address your every concern, and most importantly, bring out the best in you.

I worked with Princeton College Consulting for almost three years. Initially, I wanted to work with a consultant because while I knew my counselor at school would be extremely helpful, I also knew that they would not be able to go to the same level of depth that a consultant would be able to go to. In the end, I am really glad that I did!My counselor was incredibly helpful identifying the right schools for me, with brainstorming and reviewing and editing all of my essays as well as preparing me for interviews, helping me assemble my resumes as well as all of the other facets of my application. Overall, the process was tiring and at times I almost wanted to give up, but I definitely felt like it was worth it. Without the push for each assignment date, I definitely wouldn't have made it. Also, the separate music schools applications were very confusing so I’m very thankful that Princeton College Consulting was there.After everything, I was accepted into my dream college Early Decision and was finished with my application process by Christmas. That was nice! Working with Princeton College Consulting was great because they really helped me to manage my time because I can have a tendency to procrastinate. Overall, while the college admissions process can be exhausting, it was totally worth it and I have Princeton College Consulting to thank for it!

College admissions is a confusing, daunting, and needlessly tedious process. It takes years to cultivate a compelling application, and without Princeton College Consulting’s guidance and insight through everything, we would have been lost. Whether they’re teaching you every college’s little nuances, helping you organize and craft essays, supporting extracurricular development, or strategizing course load and recommendation letters, Princeton College Consulting helps keep everything on track while handling everything professionally, reliably, and enthusiastically.

We are so grateful for your help and services in setting our son onto his college path. He was accepted into Southern Methodist University EARLY DECISION! He had an amazing counselor. Since his ninth grade She has advised, encouraged, provided multiple resources, and has been incredibly patient and understanding during this process. She have been a consistent advisor, perfectly suited for his personality, and this success is as much hers as it is his. The college process was simplified with her organized timelines, advice on summer programs and internships, and essay editing feedback. We are both thrilled for his success and are incredibly grateful for your program. We are looking forward to working with your team for our next son!

They pushed me to think harder about myself and what I most want out of college and life. They also helped me see my writing from the admissions committee’s perspective and be patient throughout the process.

I began working with Princeton College Consulting during the summer at the end of my Freshman year of high school. Going into it, I was an anxious teen, I had a fixed mindset, and I struggled to effectively express myself through writing. By navigating my personal pillars, creating a narrative in all of my essays, and just always being there for me as a shoulder to cry on (figuratively and literally, of course), PCC helped me turn all of my initial weaknesses into weapons. As we entered the college application process, Princeton College Consulting not only revised my essays and equipped me with the tools I needed, such as a growth mindset, for approaching my apps, but they also provided me with a counselor who became a true mentor, role model, and friend. In school, I sometimes struggled with stress and time management, so I feared that the college process would be both anxiety provoking and all around arduous. With PCC, any doubts I had were quickly extinguished by my counselor’s kind encouragement and helpful advice. By starting essays early, I was able to improve my writing and complete supplements in a relatively timely manner without having to worry about impending application deadlines. Overall, PCC guided me through every part of the college process with grace and care, and for that I could not be more grateful. With their help, I’ve transformed from that timid freshman into a confident writer, excited to meet the challenges that will come my way. If I had to do it all over again, I would have started with PCC even earlier! :) Thank you guys so much!

We are glad to choose Princeton College Consulting. Our counselor has been a tremendous support in the prep school admission planning process for my son. He was very diligent and resourceful in providing expert advice and guiding us every step of the way. We were able to easily reach out through emails and phone calls to clarify all our questions and concerns. He really understood our son very well and was able to assess him within a couple of sessions and advise him with the right choices. I will certainly refer PCC to all my friends without any hesitation. I will keep in touch and once again I truly appreciate your professional support and advice in guiding us through the entire process, Thank you very much.

We initially decided to reach out to a college admissions consulting firm because we were not familiar with the US college application process. To make sure we would be able to find a suitable school for our two sons, we wanted to get help from a professional college consulting service. We spoke with several different college consulting firms, and Princeton College Consulting matched our family philosophy to help our sons gain admission to the best schools that offered the right programs and ideal culture for each of my sons. Our experience working with Princeton College Consulting was excellent! The whole process and service was very comprehensive and smooth. My two sons really enjoyed working with them and both of my sons ended up getting into their top choices of schools. I would strongly recommend anyone to work with Princeton College Consulting, understand their processes, principles, and services. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

I am so appreciative to have had PCC help me through my college journey. My counselor was flexible with my schedule, accommodating, and helped me understand college applications as I had no idea what to do. She worked with me on my essays and helped me decide where I would Early Decision vs. Regular Decision. She really got to know me and managed to find the absolute best fit for me, Lafayette, which before her I had no idea even existed. Not only did she find the perfect college for me, she walked me through step by step to make sure I was accepted. She prepared me for tours, interviews, and provided me with so much more information than I could've asked for. Now I am happy to say I am attending Lafayette in the Fall of 2023 and I couldn't have done it without PCC.

We used Princeton College Consulting last year when our son was a senior. We were told college application was a complicated process, so my wife and I decided to find a counselor to guide our son. In the process, we learned that there were so many things to do in the college application. Our counselor, helped us design an extensive schedule, covering everything from college tours, college selection, essay composition, all the way to college interview preparation. This schedule gave us peace of mind without worrying that we would miss anything. Our counselor was very reachable, whenever we sent him an email with questions, we always get quick responses. With his help, my son got into his first choice of college, Brown University. We were so happy with the result.

The whole process was beyond overwhelming and I am sure he didn't get into UCSB without all your guidance over the years. So again, thank you for all the help and support (for him AND me). I know he’s not one for too many words, but he has told me on more than one occasion how much you helped him with everything.

As a parent, I would like to thank both of you and PCC, for working with my daughter in the past two and half years! Not only that she got admitted to her dream school, but more importantly she has grown mature under your nourishment, encouragement and guidance. I remember when we first met with in April 2018 and he introduced PCC, the concept of developing a teenager throughout the course of high school and her college application process, not just for admission to schools, but as a person, was the reason that we signed the contract without hesitation. Well, today she has achieved both of these important goals. Couldn't be happier with the outcome.

I can’t say enough good things about Princeton College Consulting. My daughter had a somewhat non-traditional high school experience following a sports injury and subsequent health issues. As a result, we got a late start on the college application process and had no idea where to even begin. Our PCC counselor was fabulous. He worked with my daughter to identify schools that best fit her interests, helped her craft an essay and personal statement that showcased her strengths and told her story, and created a timeline that enabled her to get back on track and submit her applications in a timely, organized way with minimal stress. The guidance and encouragement our PCC counselor provided throughout the process made all the difference. My daughter is now a freshman at American University, one of her top choice schools. Thank you PCC!

This year I was applying to boarding schools, and I have never done anything like that before. I have been at the same school for my whole life, and knew almost nothing about the application process. My PCC Counselor was so helpful and kind during this process, and truly made it a positive experience. Interviews were something I was really worried about, but now I feel completely comfortable speaking on the spot and have improved my articulation. Looking back on this process, interviews were some of my favorite parts of the application process! This was thanks to My counselor, who helped me prepare and gave me encouraging help and resources. He not only helped me with interview practice, but also in writing my essays. He asked thoughtful questions to help me figure out the message I wanted to convey, and overall helped me organize and make my essays clearer. Besides helping me with the mechanics of my application, He also helped me with the emotional process. He is extremely caring, and has an amazing sense of humor along with many stories to tell! He helped me not lose sight of what this process was about. My counselor went above and beyond to help me not be as anxious, whether it was sending me a helpful article before I took the SSAT’s, or giving me the link to a video that got me through the interviewing stage. Looking back on this process, I truly feel that I have grown in articulation skills, confidence, and have overall become more comfortable in dealing with stress. This experience is definitely something I will remember for a long time, and that is thanks to PCC.

I highly recommend Princeton College Consulting. I chose them on my own when I realized my school counselors weren't very helpful. My counselor showed me a lot of schools that I didn't know much about and I ended up applying to most of them. The net result couldn't have been better, now I am in a top-tier school in my subject. I have to thank her for that. She has the power to change lives! :)

When I first started my application process, I was intimidated by the prospect of having to figure everything out on my own. Because I would be applying as an international student, the entire process seemed like a nightmare. This, however, was not the case. I began working with Princeton College Consulting later in my junior year and continued to do so throughout the summer of my junior year and my senior year. Peter, my counselor, was extremely helpful in everything from narrowing down a list of universities to writing application essays and preparing for alumni interviews. Above all, he was always willing to meet with me or give me advice when I needed it. I could always count on him to be available to me at any time of day or night, whether it was morning, noon, or night, and to respond quickly when I needed essay revisions, a one-on-one meeting, or simply had some questions that needed answering. It's critical to have the support of a college counselor who is committed to getting to know you and your personal goals; to making you feel heard and understood throughout the college process, and no one in this industry was more committed to providing me with that support. There was no limit on how much guidance I received. The resources I obtained through Princeton College Consulting were also imperative in my college application process, and I cannot imagine going through it without them. I could not have gone through this process without Peter, and I will be eternally grateful for the opportunity to work with him. Even after the process is complete, I still feel supported, and I and am sure that this sentiment will carry on. I would not be where I am today if it weren't for Princeton College Consulting, and I will never forget that.

Applying to college is daunting. Charting the right course requires you to manage an admissions process which is opaque and highly complex, while at the same time optimizing the limited time, energy and resources of both you and your student. All of this takes place in tension with an emotional relationship with your child -- one that will require a realistic and, at times, sobering assessment of what you both want vs what you can achieve. Add to that the fact that, most of us have absolutely no experience with the process. Given the high stakes and the challenges, it is wise to seek the help of experts. When investigating coaches, my husband and I prioritized three things: a results-oriented system that was tailored to our child's goals; staff with the interpersonal maturity necessary to keep all parties motivated; and a strictly ethical approach. With two daughters having successfully completed their admissions process under the guidance of Princeton College Consulting we can say without hesitation that we got what we were looking for and much more. From the first meeting, the team at Princeton College Consulting had everything well in hand -- understanding our child's goals, assessing their state of academic and emotional readiness, and crafting an action plan that clarified their choices and moved them consistently towards success. By the end of the process, not only had they dramatically progressed academically and achieved admission to the universities and programs they desired, but they are better planners, better writers, better thinkers and better citizens. We can honestly say that at no time in their academic careers has as much care and expertise been focused on their success. We are delighted to have our son working now with PCC on his own admission process and would wholeheartedly recommend Princeton College Consulting to anyone serious about getting the best results from the college admissions process for their own student.rie

Working with Princeton College Consulting made the college application process so much less stressful and more efficient. My counselors were very knowledgeable about colleges and kept a close eye on my progress. We met a lot and they were always flexible with my schedule. The most helpful part to me was that my counselor guided me through the essay topics when sometimes I wasn’t even sure where to begin. The continuing conversation between my counselor and I inspired my ideas and writing. I am so happy I had their help!

I could not imagine going through the college admission process without Princeton College Consulting. Whether it was deciding what colleges to apply to, writing essays, or deciding what college is the best fit for me. The college admission process can be grueling but because of PCC I finished everything well before the application deadlines. Looking back, I do not remember ever being stressed or anxious. Hiring PCC was the best decision I have ever made! I got into schools I could never have without the guidance of PCC. At PCC you get more than what you pay for, and I am so grateful to have found PCC and an admission counselor who was so committed to my success. I highly recommend them to anyone entering the college admission process!

Thank you so much for all you have done over the past three years. Your guidance and patience helped transform me and my family from clueless and concerned to confident, college ready individuals – and for that I could not be more grateful. I truly appreciate all the time and effort that you put into reading essays and resumes, talking me through the process, and just helping me feel comfortable hitting the “submit” button. I know I wasn’t always the best client and that at times I needed to be helped back on track, which you always accomplished, not by yelling but rather, by encouraging and motivating me. It was always a pleasure being able to talk with you and navigate the vast college landscape. Through minor digressions and sidebars I feel that I gained a true mentor and I couldn’t be more thankful. I’ll be sure to keep in touch next year and update you on NYU Stern and all the crazy things that will inevitably happen in the city. Thank you for helping to make my dreams come true and preparing me for the next chapter in life.

Princeton College Consulting has been an incredibly useful service in our son's college application journey. We were originally skeptical about using a college counseling service as we didn't want them to package our son into something he was not. However, from our first meeting with PCC, I must say our concerns were entirely alleviated.Our son was able to connect with his counselor very quickly, and always looked forward to his conversations with him. His counselor was receptive to our son’s thoughts and not only coached him, but he went above and beyond and regularly sent informational articles and resources based on his interests. He was an invaluable resource in guiding our son to translate his thoughts into well-structured essays –– he didn't tell him what to write, but listened to him and enabled him into discovering the right words himself. He did not sugarcoat and instead continued to push our son until he came up with a profound story that showcased him as a person. We know that our son admires his counselor as a person and appreciates his intellect and thinking style. While we are celebrating our son’s acceptance to his top two choices, we are grateful for our counselor and the rest of the PCC staff for their dedication and tireless efforts. We would highly recommend PCC to anybody who is seeking high quality college admissions counseling services.

PCC has helped my daughter with preparation of applications in the early access list. She was able to submit the applications in time because of her counselor's exceptional support.

Most importantly, I came to understand that it’s ok to admit weakness and be vulnerable in my application, that universities don’t expect a superhuman applicant. In retrospect, I see that it is the journey of the college process, not the end result, that’s essential. It is a conduit for personal development, a method by which one makes that challenging leap from adolescence to adulthood, a time where one must look back on what they have accomplished and begin to discern the path ahead.

Thank you again for your brilliant editing, your insightfulness, your responsiveness, your patience and your incredible kindness.

Our counselor has been an excellent coach guide and friend to our son during the entire slightly stressful time for us. He did not have what we could call a standard profile. With these complications, you can imagine our state of mind as we started the sessions with PCC. Not only was PCC able to clarify everything to us in a  very simple and logical manner but also spent decent time getting to know our son better and suggested various new college and program options that we had not even considered before. Would like to thank you for working with me patiently to keep him on track and motivated to complete the essays on time. It was not easy and hats off to you to keep your patience with him. Thanks to his persistence and realistic guidance, he was accepted in a number of his preferred colleges in our list.

I hired Princeton College Consulting to help my son, a high school senior, go through both the recruitment and application process. They got right to it and had my son on track immediately. He started his essay and had it completed within two weeks (when I read it I was pleasantly surprised). They helped us understand the schools where he was the best fit athletically and academically and go through the process of getting on those coach’s radar. He was recruited and accepted to his first three choices including Trinity which we would not have thought about without them. I highly recommend Princeton College Consulting to anyone who has a child, athlete or not, who is going to go to college. I know they eased MY stress during the year which was great. I didn’t have to worry if my son was communicating with all the coaches or finishing his applications. I wish we hired them earlier.

Princeton College Consulting was extremely helpful with my daughters college selection/application process. Taking my daughter’s record, values and goals in to account, they helped her find multiple schools that were a great fit for her and our family.

We realized sophomore year we had only a vague understanding of the college application process, so we turned to PCC to help us make sense of it all. Over the last 2+ years our counselor has spent countless hours working with our son on his course and extracurricular selections, essays, teacher recommendations, and all the countless little things that go into a college application. I can't overstate how helpful she was as she guided us through the process. Our son got into his dream school, and I am 100% confident that it would not have happened without PCC.

Excellent experience with Princeton College Consulting! PCC does exactly what they say they are going to do: The team diligently crafted a detailed strategic plan and associated set of tactics with each of our kids (twins - so 2 applicants at once - and each with different interests!) and worked with us every step of the way. From planning courses throughout high school - to exploring extracurricular interests - to navigating standardized tests and the college selection and application process - the more we engaged with our counselor the more we saw the value he provided. PCC takes a personalized approach for each student - no cookie cutter here! The process worked: Our kids are each attending their first choice school - and they are going together. This journey certainly required careful navigation. Could not have done it without PCC.

If you want to have an organized admission process, expert guidance on essays, lower stress levels, and excellent results, and if you want a counselor who will let your child (who is now a young man or woman) really direct the process, they are for you. The results were outstanding.  We have multiple acceptance letters, one surprise scholarship award, and ultimately a very satisfying selection process we felt very confident in.

We had an awesome experience with Princeton College Consulting. Our son's counselor was very good. She kept him on the timeline and organized. Her help in the essays and short questions was very valuable. She made sure that our son navigated the whole college application process with confidence . He got into very competitive Comp Sci program at UIUC. We would definitely recommend PCC if you are thinking of hiring a college counselor.

My daughter and we are really enjoying working with PCC and she is making great progress on her applications. Her counselor is the perfect fit for her and she has already grown so much working with him and going through this process.

Princeton College Consulting was a valuable ally for my daughter as she navigated the college application process. The process is complex and having them there, to guide and support my daughter gave me tremendous peace of mind. They took the time to find out what type of person my daughter was, what type of student she was and where her interests might someday lead her. With so many colleges to consider, that personal involvement and relationship helped guide her towards the right college fit for her. They were there for her through the entire process, from test prep, to help on her essay and keeping her on schedule. Princeton College Consulting was truly money very well spent.

We were a little overwhelmed by the many application procedures, various essay requirements and the wide variety of colleges that could be a fit for us.  Also our daughter was struggling with how to respond to questions like "tell us about yourself" or other general questions that could be answered so many ways.  With PCC's guidance we were able to sort it all out in a meaningful way.  He gave our daughter the space to lead the process and we never felt like he was directing the ship.  Our daughter learned a lot about herself through her interactions with her counselor, and the process resulted in many acceptances and a final college that we loved.

I did not have a good experience with the high school guidance counselor for my daughter, and I wanted to get professional guidance when it came time for my son to apply to college. I contacted Princeton College Consulting and I received a call back promptly. We had a very nice, long discussion about my son and I was impressed right off the bat. My husband and I then met with the counselor and again we were very impressed with what he could offer us. I can’t say enough good things about working with PCC; they are responsive, professional, knowledgeable and caring. My son was admitted to his first choice college, and received several merit scholarship offers from other colleges.

I primarily wanted help with my college essays, but my PCC counselor did more than that. He strengthened my entire application to become very presentable before any college admissions committee. He worked with me around the clock, and made himself available whenever I needed him. If I was not a PCC client, I would not be attending one of my top-choice colleges in the Fall and my essays and application would be sub-par. All in all, I highly recommend Princeton College Consulting because working with them will indefinitely increase your odds at attending your dream school.

Finding schools that are a great fit for your child can be difficult; charting a course of action to get them there, even more so. Princeton College Consulting helped to remove anxiety from the process, and replaced it with a targeted plan and prescriptive action steps to navigate us through both the college admissions and athletic recruiting process. Our son " bought in" immediately - a real testament to the PCC team. They knew exactly how much he could handle, while taking a full complement of AP classes and playing a competitive sport year-round. It was important to us to stay connected to the process. PCC did a great job accommodating this; every call was either taken or returned and every question comprehensively answered. Most importantly, it's effective - our son will be attending NYU Stern this fall and playing soccer for "the Cats". PCC was a great investment in our family's future - we would highly recommend them to anyone.

It is hard to believe that I have been working with PCC for 3 years. I cannot thank you enough for all of the help you offered. To say I couldn’t have done it without you is certainly an understatement.You always worked tirelessly to ensure that I was presenting the best version of myself across all facets of the application process. The essays you helped me write, the detailed in-depth interview responses you helped me formulate, and the college list you helped me put together would not have been so personal and specific to me if it weren’t for your guidance and expertise.I have more to thank you for, though, than just being exceptionally good at your job. You connected with me and made me learn things about myself that I never would have known. You pushed me to be my best and you believed that I would achieve my goal as long as I put in the work. It meant a lot to hear from someone other than my parents that I would become a doctor one day.I wouldn’t have the opportunity of a BSMD program without you. I’m beyond excited to start and I will of course keep you updated. Good luck with working with Michelle, though. She’s a much less cool version of myself.Thank you for everything.

Working with my Princeton College Consulting counselor was truly an incredible learning experience that has helped me set my future up for success. She not only guided me throughout the arduous essay writing and application process involved in admissions but taught me life skills of professionalism, responsibility and the importance of time management. Without PCC, my college application process would have not been nearly as smooth and perhaps I would have not discovered the opportunities I found at EHL. I cannot think of a better investment for my future than PCC.

I can say, Princeton College Consulting helped us to do both and I don’t think this would have been possible without them. Our counselor worked closely with our son and guided him through every step of both the application and athletic recruiting process. In the end, among others, our son was recruited to play golf at his top choice, Bates College.

Princeton College Consulting did a tremendous job in guiding my son through high school and the college application process. As someone who didn't attend college in the US, I was unfamiliar with this process. They helped my son get into schools of his liking and propelled his academic career to new heights.

From the moment we met with Princeton College Consulting we knew we were in expert hands. The caliber of expertise that comes with years of college admittance experience was evident. They listened intently to our daughters projected academic path and with their attention to detail, helped us craft a pathway to success with the ultimate goal of acceptance to a college of her choice. Since her sophomore year, our daughter has been conversing directly via Zoom with her College Admissions Counselor. We could not ask for a more knowledgeable, insightful, approachable or goal-oriented college admissions counselor. Her expertise is evident in unsurpassed guidance concerning college admittance requirements and logistics, essay crafting, and a vast array of specific college criteria essential for an applicant to succeed. Our daughter has become even more confident, goal oriented, and has persevered through challenging college essays, and a web of college applications. Only with direct interaction, customized strategies and stylized tools was our daughter able to shine on her college applications. She has already been accepted into highly competitive universities. Her future is bright thanks to her hard work in collaboration with Princeton College Consulting’s unparalleled knowledge and guidance techniques. We highly recommend Princeton College Consulting as integral and essential component in preparation and navigation of the competitive college application and admittance process.

Through my time working with Princeton College Consulting, I have grown as both a student and an individual. I began the program in my Sophomore year of high school and since then my writing, time management skills and character have developed massively. This is not to say that I was a bad person before, rather that through our work I developed a stronger sense of self; I learned to place an emphasis on authenticity, finding what I really enjoy, focusing on that, and avoiding doing things simply to please an admissions committee, while also undertaking the necessary academia. Most importantly, I came to understand that it’s ok to admit weakness and be vulnerable in my application, that universities don’t expect a superhuman applicant. In retrospect, I see that it is the journey of the college process, not the end result, that’s essential. It is a conduit for personal development, a method by which one makes that challenging leap from adolescence to adulthood, a time where one must look back on what they have accomplished and begin to discern the path ahead. Though it seemed daunting at first, considering the magnitude of what lay ahead of me, Princeton College Consulting broke down what needed to be completed into small, concrete steps while keeping in mind what else needed to be done looking forward. For all of this and more, I highly recommend Princeton College Consulting to any prospective students and their families.
