My family would not have gotten through the last year without the CollegeMeister - Craig Meister. The amount of pressure on students from colleges, their peers, and their schools is immense. Craig calmed us. Craig guided us. Craig encouraged us when getting through seemed impossible. Students need an advocate in what has become a vicious admissions scene/industry. Craig is that advocate. Thank you so very much from all of us for being direct and nurturing, optimistic and realistic, and helping us keep things in perspective when every other actor in the process wants to make students lose proper perspective.

We used Craig for both of our kids. After Craig helped our kids articulate their interests and identify schools where they might be happy, both had a positive experience with admissions and ended up in the right place.
