My daughter and I met with Shannon while trying to decide which college my daughter should choose. Shannon was amazingly helpful. She was very knowledgeable and asked the questions that helped my daughter figure out what was most important to her. She was extremely patient and generous with her time and attention and really listened. She came up with some creative ways to help us think about the different choices. We were so glad we met with her!

My experience with DC college counseling started in my sophomore year of high school and finished in December of my senior year with the exact result I wanted. In addition to being accepted to my ED school, the DC college counseling team helped me find a program that aligned with my educational and professional goals. My experience was nothing but positive!

I got recommend to DC College counseling by a friend of mine and their resources are not helpful. My child and I are not happy about how they handled our college application and would ask everyone to please do their research on college counseling services before committing your child to one.

The college admissions process is a perplexing journey and Colleen is an extremely capable and effective guide. We met with Colleen for a Strategy Session in the fall of our daughter’s junior year and it was immediately clear that Colleen had reviewed the materials she requested ahead of time and personalized the meeting and strategies based on our daughter’s background and interests. Colleen’s depth of knowledge of the college admissions process is exceptional, so we walked away with a much deeper understanding of the journey and the specific steps our daughter needs to take over the next couple of years. Colleen offered detailed advice on completing college applications, essays, recommendations and more. We are so much more prepared and excited to jump into this college admissions process now!
