“There have been dramatic changes since Mike became our college advising consultant. When he first came, 15 colleges
had come to recruit on our campus. The next year, we had 70, including top national universities. Our advising process is more individualized and streamlined, families are more informed, and the variety of colleges pursued by our families has broadened exponentially.”
