College Transitions is truly the best in the business!!!! I cannot recommend them enough. Their data-driven approach positions applicants at their best, and the team knows their stuff better than anybody else in the industry. You will not be disappointed using them in the admissions process.

Good support!

I really appreciated the help of college transitions! They helped me narrow down my college choices, structure the process, and paired me with a great essay editor. I got helpful and prompt feedback and was motivated to get essays done before the last minute! It’s a difficult and unknown process and college transitions made things a lot smoother.

Amazing Experience with College Transitions

Working with College Transitions throughout my application process was integral to my success! Dr. Belasco was with me through every stage of the process from focusing on the best extracurriculars and classes to take, helping to determine school fit, helping me to craft a common app essay that best showcased me, and more. With the help of College Transitions, I was accepted to Duke, Brown, UGA (Foundation Fellow), Emory, Vanderbilt, Rice, and Georgetown. Thank you so much for everything!

Stress-free process

The summer before my senior year of high school, I was extremely stressed and anxious about college applications because I had no idea where to begin. My older brother had also used College Transitions during his senior year and ended up getting offered an admission to one of his top schools. So, my family decided to work with them again. Thanks to Andrew and the support of other counselors on the team, I was able to compile a list of schools that were right for me and received a lot of guidance throughout the entire application process. I truly felt like I had so many people supporting me that it made this process feel uplifting and easy. I ended getting an offer from my dream school, NYU, thanks to Andrew and the team's undivided attention to my questions and concerns.

Made all the difference!

My experience with College Transitions was wonderful! Andrew, Michael, and the rest of the team were incredibly helpful in guiding me through an overwhelming process. Beyond helping with the application process itself, they helped me identify schools that would be a good fit. They helped me narrow down my essay topics and made it an easier process overall. College Transitions is not only incredibly knowledgable, but truly passionate for helping students. I would highly recommend them to any student or family looking for guidance. They made all the difference in my college application process.

College transitions exceeded every standard I had! I not only got into all 8 schools i applied to (including UGA and UF), I utilized every resource college transitions supplied me with - making my college application process stress free and manageable! I was given realistic and honest opinions and guidance regarding my essays and overall application. Thankful for all of the help I received!

Made the college search process seamless!

Andrew and his team were great throughout the entire college search process. He was very communicative, thoughtful, and helpful at every step of the way. Both of my parents and I relied on him to answer any and all of our questions we had. Neither of my parents went through the traditional college route, and so it was incredibly helpful to have someone who I trusted serve as my guide. Incredibly organized and really helped put together a personalized plan whether that be which colleges to look at, brainstorming for essay writing, and much more. I would highly recommend Andrew and his team to anybody; usually the college search process is very stressful, but I felt very at ease instead!

10/10! As a current college student

My experience is what helped me get into my dream school. Everyone helped break down the complex college application process and making sure I had my best chances to succeed. They were super in depth and helped me tell me story. I highly recommend any student to join College Transitions no matter what your goals are.

My experience at College Transitions

College Transitions immensely helped me through the college application process. They worked closely with my parents and me to craft a list of colleges based on my personal needs. In addition, their provided writing coach was super helpful. She met with me several times to brainstorm, draft, and proofread all of my essays. She helped me clarify my voice and pushed me to improve my writing skills. Overall, their service eased the stress of the college application process.

I cannot say enough about my daughter's…

I cannot say enough about my daughter's experience working with Dr. Andrew Belasco. The essay coaching is top notch and the college list that Andrew developed for her was comprehensive and introduced us to schools that were previously completely off our radar. In the end, she was admitted to her first choice, Duke, where she is presently attending (and thriving!). We are forever grateful to College Transitions.
