Independent Educational Consulting and Test Prep to Guide Your Teen Through the College Admissions Process

I was grateful to Diane helping me let my student take the lead and feel empowered by his search. He had a lot of moving parts that you helped him navigate for the best fit for what he desired. Diane was invaluable in holding my child accountable to deadlines and such so that I didn’t have to be the one to stay on top of him.

Diane ensured that the college admissions process was driven by my student with appropriate support from her parents. It kept her on track and accountable for doing the work needed to build a solid list of colleges to consider and to complete her applications on time.

The process can be complicated and competitive, and having every advantage can possibly be the difference between getting accepted or not.

Working with Matrix was honestly the best experience. Diane was so helpful and it was so reassuring to know we could always go to her with any questions or concerns.

It was great to have Diane share the inside track on planning. We would have missed a lot without her guidance. Our son felt like he was choosing the best schools for him.

Diane helped us make a very balanced list of schools to apply to. It seemed high-achieving kids who traditionally wouldn't have any issues getting into high academic schools were getting denials. Working with her took a lot of the worry away; we definitely felt more confident that it would work out. Working with Diane is worth it.

Diane's guidance regarding essays and checking applications was incredibly valuable. The essay/application feedback was critical and incredibly helpful. Our daughter appreciated having Diane as a sounding board and advocate. This was a challenging process, and our daughter valued Diane's help and support.

Diane helped immensely by instilling confidence in my daughter. Diane helped make subjects that filled her with anxiety more relatable and approachable, and she helped her tailor her college essay in a way that really made her shine as a student and individual. Diane also helped with the timeline for submissions, which made the college application process easier to navigate.

If you consider the cost of college, Matrix College Consulting is well worth the expense, to help ensure that your child applies to well-suited schools and has appropriate expectations on where they will be accepted, meets all of the deadlines, and applies for appropriate scholarships, both associated with the universities and outside scholarships. Senior year of high school can be very stressful, and having the support of Matrix College Consulting helped facilitate a partnership with my son in the application process, in that I was an accessory helper rather than the driver of the process. It helped us enjoy this year and the college application process, and I will be forever grateful to Matrix College Consulting for helping him get accepted and receive scholarships to a school he and our entire family is excited that he is attending.
